Re:

COLD CASE PLAYING CARDS

The Idaho Department ofCorrection hopes you will help solve some Idaho mysteries. On the
week ofJanuary 4, IDOC will introduce COLD CASE PLAYING CARDS into IDOC prisons
and reentry centers statewide. Each card features an unsolved Idaho crime or missing person and
asks anyone with information to call a COLD CASE TIPLINE.
IDOC partnered with East Idaho Cold Cases to make the cards happen. The non-profit prepared
the cards, and IDOC is making them available to you for purchase through Keefe Commissary.
Effective January 1, 2016, the COLD CASE CARDS will be the only poker deck available and
will sell for $2.00 per deck. This is below our cost to print these cards.
We'll also provide each dayroom with a deck ofCOLD CASE cards for free. These cards may
not be removed from the dayrooms.

The COLD CASE tip line number is 1-844-TIP-4040.
The call is free and anonymous, but only for cold case tips.
Inmates are allowed to call this special COLD CASE TIP LINE with information to help solve
these crj�es. The tip line is to be used only for COLD CASE TIPS. Inmates using it for other
purposes will be held accountable ifwe receive reports ofimptoper tip line use.
Ifyou have information to help solve a cold case you can also submit via a concern form, or talk
with an officer. Facilities will ensure the information is referred to the agency handling all tips.
