SC police promise ‘Tiffany’ bracelets, complimentary photoshoot for Valentine’s Day
While some are showing the love this Valentine’s Day with flowers or chocolate, Horry County and area law enforcement agencies are taking to social media to bring a different kind of affection.
Horry County Sheriff’s Office assured on Facebook that those who are planning to turn their exes in for Valentine’s Day, “we want you to know that the other side isn’t so bad — depending on how you look at it. Some might call you jealous or bitter, but you’re actually ‘gifting’ your ex a one-of-a-kind vacation inside J. Reuben Long Detention Center.”
The jail’s “all inclusive” package includes a complimentary photoshoot, a custom-tailored orange ensemble, matching “Tiffany” bracelets and a chef-curated peanut butter sandwich experience by a world-class concierge team, known as correction officers.
Conway Police used popular tunes for their Valentine’s Day cards about those who are wanted on warrants. And yes, the photos on the cards are real people who are wanted for alleged crimes.
One card says “’It Wasn’t Me’ might work in a song, but it doesn’t cancel your warrant,” using the popular Shaggy song title to feature a person wanted for larceny. Another card for a person wanted for failing to stop for blue lights says, “’You’ve Got a Fast Car’ ... but we’ve got time.”
The cards sparked an instant response and the post received more than 1,000 comments, 5,000 shares and 20,000 likes.
Georgetown County Sheriff’s Office posted an oldie but goodie with its plea to follow the laws and a “love note” that says what every driver who sees a police officer knows to be true: “Making hearts skip a beat since 1773.”
