Promoción de contrabando en prisiones y sus excepciones

Explicación Simple

Esta ley dice que no puedes llevar cosas prohibidas a la cárcel ni dárselas a alguien dentro. Si ves que alguien lo hace, debes decirle a un oficial de la cárcel.

Es como cuando estás en una fiesta y no puedes llevar bebidas alcohólicas. Si ves a alguien tratando de entrar con una botella, debes avisar a la persona que organiza la fiesta.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan, un guardia de la prisión, ve a un visitante intentando pasar un teléfono celular a su hermano encarcelado. Juan debe reportar esto de inmediato a sus superiores para que se tomen las acciones necesarias.

Penalidades

Los condenados por contrabando no pueden trabajar para el estado hasta que se restauren sus derechos civiles.
