Legacy LD - Zero Plus Dialing RIPOFF Orange California

When my father was calling from jail, he had no change and no calling call. The only option he had was to call collect. He called 2 locations. One location was only 3 miles away from the sheriff's department. That call was less than 5 minutes. ZPD charged the phone bill 5 minutes at $25.25. I called the company and the operator said there is a minimum charge of 5 minutes. The other location my father called to get a hold of someone so his family is aware where he is was 50 miles away with a call of 4 minutes at the price of $4. The company was Correctional Billing Services/Global Tel-Link. It does not make sense. How can a company outragely make charges like ZPD???
