Alabama sheriff’s department ‘thug’ Christmas tree photo deleted from Facebook – By AL.com and the Press-Register (Pennlive) / Dec 7 2020
The Mobile County Sheriff’s Department has deleted from its Facebook page a photo of a Christmas tree with mugshot ornaments on it that had been posted as part of its weekly “Thug Thursday” social media campaign.
On Thursdays, the sheriff’s office typically posts photos of people wanted on outstanding warrants.
Lori Myles, spokeswoman with the Mobile County Sheriff’s Department, on Friday said the ornaments were photoshopped onto the tree within the social media post, and that there is not an actual tree with those same ornaments on display within the Sheriff’s Department’s administrative offices near downtown Mobile.
