Someone else might have addressed this (I'm in a very different time zone),
but it appears to refer to (as it were, second-order) crimes committed
while in prison. I'm pretty sure Howard Roark would run up a few of these
if they stuck him in jail for blowing up public property, then tried to
tell him what to do, as I believe happens occasionally in jail.
