Good Behavior Can Mean Access To Tablet Computer For Some Michigan Inmates
DETROIT (AP) - Inmates with good behavior are being rewarded with tablet computers in some Michigan jails.
The tablets allow inmates in Sanilac County to look at news reports, job-search software and games. They can also use the tablets as a phone.
They're free for 60 days, then $30 a month to rent.
In February, St. Clair County plans to have tablets in jail, and more counties are expected to follow.
