Sometimes you really just need to scratch your head when you hear about how incarcerated inmates in prisons are still able to contact the outside world thanks to phones, but in addition to that, some are surprisingly using...

taco50 you are the one who talks like a girl. You typed O.M.G. When you talk to people I bet you say O.M.G. too huh? What is this week you are concentrating on how I speak? Every post to type something on who I write. What you are my personal English teacher! lol Thanks but no thanks. Remember you are rich because you have an iPhone. Don't belittle yourself. lol The only 12 year old girl is you, most people on PhoneArena.com would agree.

how about just confiscating the phones? They can just create new accounts if these accounts are closed.

easier said then done its just like cigarrettes and drugs, they confiscate 2 and they will have 4 to replace them

Like rican said, its easier said than done. Don't you think the fine folks in the California Corrections system would have tried that? its about as easy as ensuring there arent any weapons on the yard. And there are always weapons on the yard

Phone arena blew it right here> "Of course, not all inmates are using it for some sort of nefarious purpose, but rather, some are simply using it to what the popular social networking site is all about – keeping in touch with friends and family naturally."

lol, how stOOpid. i know someone who has a phone in jail but taking it to the extemes and using it for facebooking,, lmao. its just hilarious, as if there was anything to post. or even for just watching other peoples profiles, it would be depressing seeing everyone having fun and being free while theyre stock in there getting raped as we speak. hope they have access to phonearena maybe theyre already checking out what phone theyre gonna get!

Not saying I think prisoners should be able to use Facebook but it is an intriguing situation, most inmates have little to no contact with law-abiding citizens and I'd imagine that most using Facebook would be using it to keep in touch with those outside of the prison walls...which would probably be more beneficial relations than those made on the inside.

But, who would have thought putting millions of criminals together in a small facility would create millions of even more deviant citizens upon release...interesting paradigm.
