I read the article. To be frank, if the prisoners are denied mail from family it will be an effective way to really ring the message home that they need to improve their lives upon their release. Hopefully, those who serve shorter sentences will have more reason to not return to crime.

What is this 1865? Letters? I mean who (besides bill collectors, and people with butlers) send letters?
There should be some way to scan the mail for contraband.
Maybe they could just print out emails and give them to the inmates.
