Hate Your Ex? Give them the gift of incarceration for Valentine’s Day, law enforcement agency says

NASSAU COUNTY, NY – Do you hate your ex?  Is he or she not paying child support? Do they have outstanding criminal warrants? Well, according to one New York law enforcement agency, a call to the police department might help you be able to have an enjoyable Valentine’s Day.

“Valentine’s Day Weekend Special:Do you have an ex-Valentine and know they have outstanding warrants? Give us a call at 904-225-5174 with their location and we’ll give them a memorable time,” the Nassau County Sheriff’s Department posted today on Facebook. “This Valentine’s Day Weekend will be at least one nights stay in our detention facility and a fancy feast from the jail cafeteria.Help us give your ex loved one a unforgettable night…Operators are standing by for your call!”

It doesn’t appear that the department is joking and they’re dead serious about you helping them find people in the community with active warrants.

So far, after being featured on Good Morning America, nobody has taken them up on their offer.
