ATLANTA A former federal judge from Georgia who was sentenced to 30 days in prison for drug-related crimes involving a stripper has reported to a federal prison in Oklahoma.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons said Jack Camp reported Friday to the Federal Correctional Institute in El Reno, Okla.

Camp was arrested in a sting in October after authorities say he and the stripper made a drug buy from an undercover officer. The judge was sentenced in March after pleading guilty to three criminal charges in November.

The ex-judge said in court filings that his decades-long battle with depression and a bicycling accident in 2000 caused brain damage that led him to use drugs and start seeing the stripper.
