The article is from a couple of years ago, I believe. One of the names mentioned within, Sandra Burris, seemed to ring a bell with me from having it mentioned in this thread, I believe. (Not sure if her case has been solved by now -- you folks who are doing most of the research here will know, I'm sure.)
Anyhow -- it would not surprise me if some of the other names in this thread ended up in those decks (or will end up in the decks, if they do this intermittently). I wonder if Lisa Pate's did -- maybe so, and it sparked some of the inmate reports the state had ready to use in a case against BSL.
Just thought it interesting!
ETA: Here's the link to the cards:
