Two men at Calhoun State Prison just added 26 years and 8 months of federal time for a jury-duty phone scam, on top of the Georgia sentences they were already serving. Here’s how the time adds up.
Georgia’s prisons can’t block or seize their way out of phone scams. GPS argues for registered, monitored phones inside, with lawyers excluded, backed by the state’s own arrest reports and the DOJ’s findings.
Georgia bans phones to hide abuse, not ensure safety. DOJ found constitutional violations. Staffing at 50-70% vacant. Budget up $700M with nothing to show. The issue isn’t technology—it’s control without transparency.
