SAO PAULO (AP) -- Inmates have devised an innovative way to smuggle in cell phones into a prison farm in Brazil: carrier pigeons. Guards at the Danilio Pinheiro prison near the southeastern city of Sorocaba noticed a pigeon resting on an electric wire with a small cloth bag tied to one of its legs last week. "The guards nabbed the bird after luring it down with some food and discovered components of a small cell phone inside the bag," police investigator Celso Soramiglio said Tuesday.
One day later, another pigeon was spotted dragging a similar bag inside the prison's exercise yard. Inside the bag was the cell phone's charger, Soramiglio said.
This is amazing. If I knew that the prisoners were doing this, I'd let them get whatever they can get. Pigeon smuggling should be a free for all in my eyes. If they want to put the effort in with training a pigeon, you deserve it. So what if it leads to bank robbing, kidnapping and killings.
