Manson used phone to call 'contacts' across US

[Geee]

UK Independent:

Charles Manson managed to smuggle a mobile phone into his high-security prison cell, using it to call contacts in at least four states and record messages that were later broadcast on US television.

The former cult leader convicted of inspiring followers to carry out a series of gruesome murders in the late 1960s, was caught with an LG phone under his mattress when officers searched his cell at Corcoran State Prison in California last April.
