Sheldon Silver ordered back to prison days after release on furlough | New York Post

It’s back to the cell for Shel.

Disgraced ex-state Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver will be sent back to prison — just days after being allowed back home on furlough, a source said Thursday.

The Democrat from Manhattan’s Lower East Side will have to head back to lockup after the feds decided he could not serve out his sentence in home confinement.

He will have to report back to Otisville Prison as soon as Thursday afternoon, NBC New York reported.

Silver was cut loose Tuesday just eight months into his more than six-year sentence. Officials from the Bureau of Prisons had let him out on furlough while deciding if he could serve the remainder of his time in home confinement.
