I am, honestly. The quote from the article was "McFarland told NBC News that during his time in prison he served two separate turns in solitary confinement: a three-month stint for sneaking a USB drive in with him containing notes for a possible tell-all book, and later a seven-month stretch for calling into a podcast about Fyre via payphone. Prison officials declined to discuss McFarland’s time in solitary. ". That's not framing the solitary as consensual.

Again, he could well be lying - that is rather what he's known for - but I can believe that he's not, and that in itself is pretty damning.
