IIRC finding unauthorized PED's is being discussed as a new equipment.
The New Scientist article reports that a guard shot in an attack quite possibly arranged by a cellphone-using inmate (or inmates) is suing 20 cellular providers for not jamming calls by prisoners: "He says that had local mobile networks chosen to, they could have jammed calls from inside the jail. He is seeking unspecified damages ..." See http://www.wistv.com/story/21443381/former-sc-prison-guard-suing-cellphone-companies
I suspect his accusation is based on the assumptions that 1)jamming is legal and that 2) it is possible to selectively jam only those cellphones not located in staff spaces. I suspect also that he might have a better case if he had asked why they didn't block all but authorized NUMBERS.
