A jailhouse phone call.

An interesting phenomena in its own right. The prison industrial complex in the USA generates an estimated 1.3 billions per year. In March of 2020, the Dane County Jail stopped all in-person visitations due to the rapid spread of the Covid-19 virus and implemented a policy in which every inmate was allotted two 15-minute phone calls per day.

But no matter if it's free or charged, if you happen to be on either end of a jailhouse phone call you should be aware of one key fact. This is not a normal phone call. 

That’s because there’s an inherent irony in this kind of call. Especially a call that takes place pretrial – like the one you're about to hear between Chandler Halderson and his girlfriend Catherine Mellender. And the irony is this:

You’re free to talk about nearly any subject you'd like – except for the one that you'd both like most to discuss.

'Who murdered and dismembered your parents? And why do the police think you did it?'
