USA. We Know Visitors Aren’t the Ones Bringing Drugs Into Our Prison

The Tennessee private prison where I’ve been incarcerated since 2016 has long maintained that the supply of contraband drugs here is mainly brought in by visitors. But for most of the past two years, all visitors have been barred from entering the facility, yet the flow of drugs didn’t stop. It increased, and so did the frequency of overdoses. The only people coming in and out were staff.  (Filter, USA, 22.03.2022)
