Prisoner Thomas White moved to Chippewa Correctional Facility

Thomas A. White, the disbarred Belleville attorney who pled no-contest to 20 felonies and was sentenced April 10, finally has been processed into the state prison system.
He was at the Charles Egeler intake processing center in Jackson until last week when he was taken to the Chippewa Correctional Facility in Kincheloe in the Upper Peninsula. He is incarcerated under Security Level II. Level I is minimum.
According to the online Offender Tracking Information System (OTIS), White, 47, is scheduled to serve from 6 to 15 years incarcerated by the Michigan Department of Corrections.
According to OTIS, the earliest release date is April 8, 2021 and maximum discharge date is April 8, 2030. The earliest release dates may change depending on good time or disciplinary credits, or misconduct for violating prison rules.
White was a Belleville attorney with his office across from Belleville City Hall on Main Street for more than 20 years.
He pled no-contest to the 20 felony charges stemming from his embezzlement of funds from senior citizens, families waiting for inheritances, businesses seeking important paperwork to stay in business, the elderly who sold their houses to go into nursing homes only to have the money stolen, and many others.
He told the circuit court judge that when he gets out of prison he will spend his life paying back the people he cheated.
The large amount of money he took is yet to be found.
