This isn't the case at all actually. An MP3 player is classified as nuisance contraband . Nuisance contraband is anything that is violates policy, but doesn't pose a significant institutional risk. Nuisance contraband may include pornography, gambling chips, markers, extra property (clothes, photo's, etc.), and yes, personal electronic equipment. MP3 players aren't banned because of "gang fueled songs", they are banned because they violate policy, that's it. In other words, an inmate could be listening to the Lords Prayer on his/her MP3 player and still get time in the hole.
