Cell Phone Hidden in Cake, Smuggled Into Prison

Chaplain Unwittingly Smuggles Cell Phone in Birthday Cake
Cell phones are now legal in most places -- even North Korea, where, until recently, owning one was a crime punishable by death. But despite certain celebrities acting otherwise, cellys are still illegal in jails, where criminals are resorting to some interesting techniques to smuggle them in -- such as baking them into cakes, as a chaplain unwittingly found out in Dublin, Ireland.

The chaplain was bringing a birthday cake in to a prisoner serving a two-year sentence for arson. When he arrived, the cake was sent through an X-Ray machine and a phone was found stashed inside, hidden like keys or weapons used to be in old-time movies. It's unclear exactly who actually baked the cake and put the phone inside, but the chaplain at least has been cleared of any wrongdoing while the investigation continues.

Laptop Cakes Pay Homage to Internet Dating
