Inmates Fund High Tech Sheriff System Upgrade
The Wilson County officials approved a $245000 plus three year contract to upgrade the sheriff's communications and records system funded by inmate phone call revenue. The jail calls cost about 3.40 per minute and generate 4000 to 5000 monthly, yielding 40 percent to the sheriff's department toward a Plano vendor package from The Software Group.
