Before my retirement from the Bureau of Prisons in 2004, cell phone were starting to make an introduction back in 1995. When I arrived at my last duty station, we had meetings about jamming cell phones that could be smuggled into our institution, since we were in the activation stage of the facility, it was a perfect time to implement. I and some other staff members contacted local cell phone corporations asking for their idea. I was quoted by one company to the price of 1 million dollars, they could make that happen.

Best of luck, this has to happen, I can't even imagine how many lives have been waisted, because of this continuous issue:)
