That kind of price-gouging is ubiquitous in the prison industry. Phone call pricing is particularly egregious and the service is awful and onerous. Nobody really gives a damn, which is why it continues.
One day, a buddy of mine that was in prison called me out of the blue. No automated voice line telling me to give up my credit card number for $3.00 a minute calls, just his voice on the other end of the line. I was amazed, until he told me he was calling from a contraband cell phone.
