Sean Caddle was relocated to the low-security federal prison at Fort Dix in New Jersey on Tuesday to serve his 24-year prison sentence for hiring two hit men to brutally murder a longtime friend and associate.
U.S. Marshals took Caddle into custody following his June 29 sentencing and transferred him to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons on August 2. He spent six days at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn before being moved to Fort Dix, a spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Prisons said.
It’s not clear if Caddle will serve his entire sentence at Fort Dix, or if he is being held in proximity to the U.S. District Court for any other reason. The circumstances of Cadle’s home confinement since January 2022 and several postponed sentencing hearings remain mysterious, especially since his cooperation netted no big fish for prosecutors.
Caddle, a former Democratic political consultant, admitted to hiring two career criminals to stab Michael Galdieri, a Jersey City political operative and son of a former state senator, and then set his apartment on fire in 2014. The case remained unsolved until Caddle was charged in early 2022; he admitted his role in the murder-for-hire scheme as part of a plea agreement with federal prosecutors and remained under house arrest at his Sussex County residence until his sentencing.
The two men Caddle hired to murder Galdieri, George Bratsenis, and Bomani Africa, are being held elsewhere: Africa is at a medium-security prison in West Virginia, while Bratsenis is at the same detention center in Brooklyn where Caddle spent nearly a week. It’s unclear whether Caddle and Bratsenis had any contact.
Bratsenis and Africa are serving sentences for other crimes.
The U.S. Attorney’s office sought a 15-year prison term, but U.S. District Court Judge John Michael Vasquez chose for a harsher sentence.
The U.S. Bureau of Prisons has divided its facilities into five categories: minimum, low, medium, and high, along with administrative.
