...you mean like cyanide?
Oh hell no!
Good grief!
I smell Soros.
My tablet is connected to the Internet.
There’s a learning curve associated it but once you get up to speed, you wonder how you did without it.
The CEO of JPay must be a good friend of Gov. Cuomo. Big kickback time. And the inmates get registered to vote, too.
What do you think is the great danger there? Remember, they don’t have internet.
And.. Wait for it.. They'll be CASTING THEIR VOTES ELECTRONICALLY IN ELECTIONS!
Evil DemonRat mindset at work.
I believe there are better uses for the money that will benefit the inmates more. But maybe not donors...
It can’t hurt do a trial in a select few prisons...
Managed correctly, it might be a ppositive thing...
I can think of five ways to make some pretty frightening weapons out of one, just off the top of my head. One of them would clear the prison.

The concern is this is the first step toward doing away with direct to direct visiting. Families would only see their loved ones on a computer. I have a dear friend in a 4-5 level prison (5 is the highest) and he needs two courses for his associates degree. You would never believe how hard it is to get the material. There’s only a couple of schools in the Nation left who will do everything by mail as most have gone to computer and he doesn’t have access to internet. Books and lessons are constantly getting lost because other prisoners could care less if he gets the material and proctors are not available for weeks at a time.
Free computers to prisoners? What could *possibly* go wrong?
Your tax dollars at work. Making prisons great again ... for the criminals.
The new ‘BFF’ in prison will be the computer whiz who knows how to hack into the wardens etal WIFI ..
What could go wrong as you say. They let them have cassette players. They could buy them, or have someone send them one. Then they'd tear them apart and use the motor, and turn ball point pens into tattoo machines.
I'm assuming each pad will have to be inscribed with their name and number, but they inscribed the cassette players too, but it didn't stop the cons from scratching out the inscription, and putting their own name and numbers on them.
Like I said...I'm glad I don't have to put up with that crap anymore. I feel sorry for the officers and supervisors who are still doing their own bid, eight plus hours a day. I did mine.
Our prisons are generally a disgrace. Mostly filled with non-violent drug users. I wish the President would get on board in leading prison reform nationally. Many who rot in prison could in fact be given learning opportunities that would, if they took advantage of them, prepare them for some kind non-criminal careers. Let the non-violent offenders have the option to improve and change; many would.
The prison-industrial complex, while unavoidable, is both a blessing and a curse that needs to be overhauled, IMHO.
And yes, I have spent plenty of time as a volunteer visiting prisoners in County jails and State prisons in Arizona.
Pretty clever new market for JPay.
The most common ingredient in meth is pseudoephedrine or ephedrine, commonly found in cold medicine. Through a cooking process the pseudoephedrine or ephedrine is chemically changed into meth. The ingredients that are used in the process of making meth can include: ether, paint thinner, Freon®, acetone, anhydrous ammonia, iodine crystals, red phosphorus, drain cleaner, battery acid, and lithium (taken from inside batteries).Awfully nice to give the criminals some pretty big lithium batteries.
