After [[ComicBook/ThePunisher Frank Castle]] is also imprisoned, Fisk manages to play events so that Frank kills his competition, allowing Fisk to take over the prison and obtain a new source of funding. Through this funding, he buys a hotel and converts the penthouse suite into a LuxuryPrisonSuite that allows him to still control his criminal empire with ease, and to get himself transferred there, he performs a long-term manipulation con on [[FBIAgent Ray Nadeem]]. Even while under "house arrest", Fisk manages to create a massive extortion racket that collects protection money from other gangs, directs a riot back at the prison in an overly complex scheme to get rid of Matt, and turns [[TheSociopath Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter]] into his personal attack dog.
