@nbcnightlynews: In some jails a 25 minute video call can cost $10. And in-person visitations are forbidden. Now the legal battle is on in Michigan. Lester Holt reports on one Sheriff’s change of heart on the policy.
This is inhumane but we are all protesting Israel 🥺. This is happening right here in USA private prisons are dangerous.

The jails make a profit from video calls. I read that they get about 39% from the cost of each call.

there are facilities near me where they only have video visits but you still need to come all the way to the facility. you travel all that way just to not see your loved one with your own eyes
