SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (CNN) -- Some inmates in Utah are
spending their days in prison offices, instead of behind
bars, fielding calls for the Utah Travel Council. The phones
have been ringing off the hook since the Olympic scandal
broke, greatly increasing the state's exposure to the world.
Correspondent Greg LaMotte explains how the arrangement is
benefiting both inmates and the state.
