Playing it straight
Florida officials have come up with an interesting way of trying to close some unsolved cases: They’re giving cold case playing cards to inmates around the state.
According to the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper, more than 100,000 decks — produced at a cost of about $80,000 – will be distributed. (There are apparently two different decks, as the total number of cards is 104, twice the number of cards in a standard deck.)
Each card bears a photograph and information about an unsolved homicide or missing persons case.

I think this is a good idea, but I really don’t think an inmate would respond to it without some kind of reward? Not after this long, and that’s 80,000$ that could go towards a better force, and with that maybe instead of that if the inmates were ever to get the privlege of watching movies or t.v. that the stories be told befoe hand on some kind of taped cold case of oklahoma premiere?? I wish the best for this. thank you for all you do.
