Serial Killers Holbert and Reese - Talking On The Phone
By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Confessed serial killer William Dathan Holbert's mother bought him a whole stack of telephone calling cards when she came to visit in Panama. These cards were delivered to Holbert and his girlfriend Laura Michelle Reese by their lawyer. They can use these cards to make telephone calls freely, and for example Holbert calls and talks to his grandmother in North Carolina practically every day. He can also call the pay phone in the Women's prison and talk directly to Laura Michelle Reese. When I learned about this activity this morning, I called and spoke to the prosecutor responsible for the case, Angel Calderon, the Deputy Attorney General. He said "yes, I knew about that ... it's a right they have as detainees in the penitentiary system ... all prisoners have the right to make telephone calls and to communicate with their family members, lawyers, or whoever ... they use those prepaid calling cards and they have access to pay phones installed inside of the prison." I already know every call placed or received on those phones is recorded so at least the calls are not private. Prisoners also often have access to smuggled cell phones which they prefer because it's harder for justice authorities to monitor those calls. Anyway, Holbert and Reese are not totally cut off from the outside. Prisoners all around the world are faced with the same problem so it's not surprising really.
