Making millions from behind bars

The reports:

Inmates in our most secure prison are accused of making fortunes from a highly organised ring run from behind bars, with at least one alleged to have become a millionaire.

Police documents claim the prisoners ran their methamphetamine importing and manufacturing ring from Auckland Maximum Security Prison at Paremoremo under the noses of – and sometimes with the assistance of – prison officers.

This is just staggering stuff, and shows what a joke prison is to some prisoners.

It also again the unacceptably high level of in the public prison service. Passing a to terminate the private management of Auckland Remand Prison was one of the most stupid things ever done by any Government. You finally had a corruption-free prison.
