New Phone Service Available For Prison Inmates

There are reports of a new telephone service offering reduced rates for phone calls made to prison inmates. This is welcome news for their families and other individuals who wish to have frequent contact with them. The reduced rates, however, will not apply if the inmate is in solitary confinement or out in the yard, and somebody has to take a message, especially on a lunch break. Needless to say, the highest rates will apply to any calls from a telemarketer offering a mail-order seminar on time mangement techniques, especially to inmates on death row.
