Spokane County Jail

Telephones

Interview with Cesar and Tom


JM: Did you have regular access to telephones?
Cesar: Yes, every time we were able to get out of the cell we were able to use the phones.
Tom: I DID HAVE ACCESS TO PHONES BUT HAD NO ONE TO CALL EXCEPT FOR MY WIFE CARRIE ANNE MOSS DEEN, AND AT THAT TIME SHE KNEW THAT I HAD A COCAINE PROBLEM SO THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD BOTHER HER AT WORK, ALTHOUGH SHE ALWAYS KNOWS WHERE I AM, WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE TIME AND SPACE ARE SIMPLY AND EQUASION THAT TWO PEOPLE OVERCOME.

JM: What types of charges applied for calling people?
Cesar: Outrageous. I'm not sure of the exact cost, but my family told me it was unreal.
Tom: STANDARD CHARGES

JM: Did you need to buy phone cards to call out?
Cesar: No. You could call out collect to phones that weren't blocked to collect calls
Tom: NO I DID NOT

JM: Did the jail screen your calls?
Cesar: There is a sign stated that calls could be monitored but not sure if they actually were.
Tom: I WOULD HOPE SO
