    1. >They said in their Friday release that they’ve seen a recent increase in contraband smuggled into prisons by use of books. In most cases, they said, drugs are hidden inside hard covers and bindings or soaked into the pages.

    2. Twenty five years ago at least my state was banning any books that weren’t shipped directly from the seller.

      Before the ban family / friends would mail book pages would soaked in LSD and other drugs which could then injested.

      They’d also use the books to facilitate criminal activity via messages by marking sections of the books.

      So this is really just Texas getting with the times. I’m actually surprised they weren’t already.
