Michigan's Department of Corrections implements TextBehind DOCS to secure inmate mail and curb drug smuggling.

The Michigan Department of Corrections is adopting a new system, TextBehind DOCS, to enhance security for privileged mail sent to inmates. This system will confirm the origin of such mail without revealing its contents, reducing the burden on staff to verify each item. The initiative aims to prevent the smuggling of dangerous drugs, like fentanyl, into prisons and holds senders responsible for the contents of their mail.
