Daniel Shannon ran his drug ring from prison using contraband cellphones. The director of SC's prisons has spent more than nine years trying to convince the federal government to allow states to jam cellphone signals inside prison walls.
A South Carolina prisoner serving a life sentence for murder orchestrated killing a man he thought robbed a drug runner for a methamphetamine ring the inmate was running from behind bars, federal prosecutors said.
Shannon ran his drug ring from prison using contraband cellphones. The director of South Carolina's prisons has spent more than nine years trying to convince the federal government to allow states to jam cellphone signals inside prison walls. Stirling has plenty of examples. There was a 2018 gang riot — orchestrated through illegal cellphones — that ended with seven prisoners killed. A state prison guard was ambushed and seriously injured in a hit planned and ordered from inside the prison.
Shannon, 43, pleaded guilty in federal court earlier this year to conspiring to distribute methamphetamine. A judge linked the 2019 killing of Cletis "Eddie" Baker in Kershaw County to the drug ring and accepted the proposed life sentence, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office.
