An anonymous hacker has found phone records showing that prisons have recorded "at least" 14,000 calls between inmates and lawyers through software from Securus. As you might imagine, that potentially represents huge violations of both the attorney-client privilege and Sixth Amendment protections against interference with your right to counsel.

US Constitution?? Constitution? The government looks at the US Constitution as a mere annoyance---a hinderance---- and something they are forced to "put up with" rather than a protection for all American citizens.
If you do much work with inmates and in prison reform, you learn early on that this nation does not care about justice, as justice is just a word thrown around to placate the uninformed citizens to make them think there is some fairness in the system.
Nor do they care if they convict an innocent man and ruin his life and that of his family.
It is all part of the process called a Police State.
But the citizens have nobody to blame but themselves; they elect the politicians who pass restrictive laws just as they elect those who enacted the Patriot Act and any other piece of legislation that robs us of our Constitutional rights.
After 9/11, the bed wetters, the feeble minded, asked for more security in the form of laws-----well, their wishes have been realized.
Someday giving those rights away----for the promise of some security----will come back to bite us all in the butt. But then, it will be too late.
Just a sad situation indeed.

"He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither."
It's been going on for a minute. Perhaps not purposely? I dunno.
But notice nothing is reported on any recourse that can be taken by prisoners and/or/if their cases are dropped because of illegal dealings.

A lady I once knew, who I greatly respected told me: I love my country, I just don't love what my country does.
I too am a vet and now understand the part of the oath that says: against all enemies foreign and domestic
