Long distant calls from the jail could cost as much as $30.00 depending on where and when you made the call. <br/><br/><br/>These officials actions leave no doubt as to the fact that the jail/justice system is nothing more than a well designed money making racket, and the poor and working class people are the exploited.

The current cost for a local phone call from the Dallas County Jail is $3.80 for 15 minutes after which the phone call automatically disconnects. There may be an additional .50 cent charge for some interstate tax or something. This has been the price for the last year or so. I believe that the prices you quoted are incorrect.
