North Carolina sheriff's office asks people to turn in wanted exes for Valentine’s Day
Published February 13, 2021
Is your ex-boyfriend also a wanted ex-con?
Law enforcement officials in North Carolina are giving jilted lovers a chance to get in the Valentine’s Day spirit this weekend. Sort of.
The Nash County Sheriff’s Office is promoting a "Valentine’s Day Weekend Special" on its Facebook page.
VALENTINE’S DAY TATTOO COVER-UPS ARE BEING OFFERED BY THIS RUM COMPANY
"Do you have an ex-Valentine and know they have outstanding warrants?," the post reads.
"Give us a call … with their location and we’ll take care of the rest."
As part of the romantic revenge, officials promise to provide a set of limited-edition platinum bracelets, free transportation with a chauffeur and a one-night minimum stay in "our luxurious (five-star) accommodations."

Hundreds of people were tickled by the payback gag, posting comments like: "Not only does our county police force provide us with great service, they also keep us entertained. Thank you, NCSO!," and "Did you mention a new outfit too."
