Contraband cell phones in prison are a problem of both SUPPLY and DEMAND. Traditionally, prisons have focused only on preventing the SUPPLY of cell phones. Now with meshDETECT, you can REDUCE THE DEMAND for - and therefore the contraband value of - smuggled cell phones in jail. The smuggled cell phone contraband epidemic into detainee and prison environments has introduced increasing expense, officer risks, and heated debates about responsibilities, control capabilities, ethics, and liabilities. meshDETECT is a patent pending technology and process platform that can be integrated into almost any environment interested in the smart management and availability of prison cell phones - which promotes improved detainee behavior and officer safety. While avoiding blocking technology expense and impracticality, prison cell phone calls can be monitored, recorded, and legitimate prison cell phone inventories can now replace contraband. Eliminating the demand for more expensive smuggled and contraband cell phones, and offering a strategy that appeals to legislators, officer unions, and taxpayers alike, is how meshDETECT is revolutionizing prison cell phone access. www.prisoncellphones.com

› For today:

A look at the past, while
looking to the future
New service options mean
new opportunities
More simply address
contraband for all parties
concerned
One prisoner's wife says her
husband regularly calls her
on a clandestine mobile. She
works evenings, so is unable
to talk to him through legal
channels. She accepts he is
breaking prison rules, but
believes regular contact is
important. I like to keep him
abreast of family life, involve
him in decision making, it
makes him feel part of the
family he is away from, she
says. But it would be nice to
do it legitimately.

›

›
Increases access
Devalues contraband
Revitalizes current phones
Creates new applications
Improves detainee morale
Increases safety
Supports any agenda
Without investment expense
Readily available telephony
reduces smuggled mobile
phones. The number of
prisoners failing random
mandatory drug tests also
fell... fewer assaults, less
bullying and fewer incidents of
self-harm… the frequency and
quality of contact with their
families increased… a proven
factor in reducing the
likelihood that prisoners will
reoffend; consequently, an
improvement in rehabilitation.
