Jail inmate charged with 40 new misdemeanors after allegedly calling victim 139 times on free jail phones

Staff report

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Landon Kirell Coleman, 22, an inmate at the Alachua County Jail,  has been charged with 40 counts of violating his pre-trial release conditions after allegedly calling his domestic battery victim 139 times on the free jail phones.

Coleman was arrested on November 27, 2025, for allegedly entering his ex-girlfriend’s residence uninvited, pushing her down, grabbing her phone, and then throwing her onto an asphalt road outside her residence.

An Alachua County Sheriff’s Deputy reported that on November 28, 2025, a judge instructed Coleman to have no contact with the victim in his case, but between December 22 and February 16, Coleman allegedly used the PINs of two other inmates to directly contact the victim 139 times. The deputy reported that the victim became upset with Coleman’s questions during “a high number of calls,” and she has told him repeatedly to stop calling her before hanging up on him.

Coleman has been charged with 40 counts of violating his pre-trial release conditions, and Judge Jonathan Ramsey set bail at $400,000 on the new charges ($10,000 per count); Coleman was already being held without bail on the November charges. Judge Ramsey also ordered that Coleman’s phone and video privileges be limited to calls with his attorney.

  • Thanks Prizzia and Lil Kenny for your real leadership skills abdenabling this POS free access to harass a victim. You both are class acts.

    • I wonder if their complacency makes them accessories, accomplices or co-conspirators? Maybe just facilitators?

      They’re as guilty as the guy who steals the gun, sells it to someone else, and that person commits a robbery.

  • I say keep the phones. Maybe add more of them. The phones seem to keep the people that belong in jail from getting out of jail. Maybe they are on to something!

  • Another find waste of taxpayers money by the idiots of Alauchua county commission its bad enough for the people be victimized once now with the help of the county commission they get to be victimized again?

  • Maybe the victims should sue the BOCC for aiding and abetting with their STUPID, free, taxpayer paid phone. There is increased crime in the jail also, since these thugs bully other prisoners for their phone quota also

  • 139 calls but only 40 charges? Seems to me they’re having some issues with their math. Were the other 99 violations acceptable? No contact means no contact. 139 calls means 139 violations. Period.

    • 40 charges are all that will fit on the charging document at the jail. Their system is out dated and problematic.

  • Victims need to start suing the county and county commissioners personally for enabling this abuse to continue.

    Anna Prizzia and Ken Cornell in particular are responsible and personally liable for the continued abuse and harassment of victims like the battered woman in this case.

    I will not be surprised in the least when we find out that both Prizzia and Cornell are receiving kickbacks either directly or indirectly from the company supplying the communications service, as are the criminal leadership of GRACE Marketplace who recently spoke up for the rights of abusers to continue abusing their victims even while in jail.
