Jesus Christ. There’s no excuse for this. None!
US Marshals arrest wrong man in Ohio, extradite him to Memphis where he spends 5 months in jail. The actual suspect had already been in jail the whole time — and they still didn’t release the innocent guy right away once they realized their fuckup!

I played around with #inkscape again and trying to simulate this #80s aesthetics.
This style was very popular during the 80s and is retrospectively often use for anything related to this era. The name comes from the #Memphis Design Group.
Simple geometric forms and bright colors are quite determine for it.
