Inmates initially had 500 minutes a month to speak to their families or loved ones. However, the prison authorities have reduced this to 300 minutes a month. A family member of the inmate exclusively revealed to the source, “We’ll need to pay for all 300 minutes.” But that’s not all. The inmates would also have to pay for their phone calls.
The insider claimed that inmates would have to pay “six cents per minute” every time they made calls. They felt that this was a hefty amount and a “money-gouging move” by the authorities. As per the source, this would put an extra “financial burden” on the people who are already struggling to make ends meet.
The insider added, “Half of prisoner’s families struggle to maintain food and housing, much less extras.” As per the policy update on the BOP website, they have taken a step to reduce the call rates for AICs to $0.06 per minute. The inmates would further have to pay $0.16 per minute for video communications.
All of this came after fans spotted Josh wearing branded stuff. He was spotted wearing branded sneakers and sunglasses. The source even claimed that he was forcing Jim and Michelle for money. So, there is a fair chance that after these recent changes, the financial burden on the latter couple will increase. Keep coming back to the TV Season & Spoilers for more updates.
