Phone calls made to the outside world by inmates are usually made from land-line phones monitored closely by prison officials.

Smuggling Cell Phones into prisons has become a serious security concern of late, some states like Calif. for instance, actually have dogs trained to sniff out the contraband as inmates have devised creative methods of smuggling them into the various institutions. With the shake-down procedures used in prisons on a daily basis, that type of contraband is difficult to conceal.
