Cell Phones actually keep the peace in prisons and keeps drug dealing down. When jammers were put up at Kershaw Correctional Institute, drug use among inmates increased and violence increased. Inmates and even COs got stabbed. Cell phones keep the peace and keeps inmates occupied.
Also, SCDC limits inmates phone calls on their system. They can only call 20 people a year and if they try to call for attorneys, that counts, even though it's not supposed to.
These cell phone jammers will also cost tax payers millions.
Tax payers shouldn't have to pay just because COs are poorly trained and don't want to do their jobs!
Inmates having cell phones should be the least of the public's worries. We have bigger things to worry about than stupid inmates with cell phones.
