Inmates secretly built computers to commit more crimes from inside US prison

Poor security allowed inmates at a prison in the US to secretly build their own computers, an investigation has found. Prisoners at Marion Correctional Institution in Ohio used digital skills workshops and computer recycling schemes to steal parts and create their own devices from them. The prison's security staff only realised what was going on when the IT department received an alert about a computer on the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction's network exceeding its daily internet usage limit. They then found that the computer being used was also logged in to an absent member of staff's account. The I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, which is able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120mph.
