    They should spend all their sentences listening to this everyday 24 hours a day.
    THAT would be a fair.

    Amateur. His mistake was doing this in West Bloomfield, Michigan. He should have been operating from Eastern Europe, where bribing the government to look the other way is just a cost of doing business.

    4 years hardly seems like a strong enough punishment. I think he should instead be forced to order and use all the products his spam campaign advertised.

    @TheNimboo: No, but they get them smuggled in. It makes it easier for them to continue to conduct whatever illegal activities got them locked up in the first place.

    So then if somebody immediately outside the prison has an emergency, how do they call for help?

    @iSmithx_has_code_fu: Chances are, if someone is stopped right outside a prison, the guards are going to pay attention.

    But it's only useful when someone gets a 3-shank streak. That's why I prefer "stopping power."

    Getting jammed up is what landed these guys (and gals) in prison in the first place.

    What ever happened to smuggling more innocent things into prison, like cigarettes, money, booze, drugs etc?
