Chest-thumping between Tulsa Jail inmates is no longer confidential.
Authorities have begun introducing them to the city's crime-reporting tip line, hoping to capitalize as inmates learn they can turn in their boastful peers for cash rewards.
"There's kind of a jailhouse culture, if you will," Sheriff's Sgt. Shannon Clark said. "A lot of inmates get in and talk about their crimes and they want to one-up everybody else."
The Tulsa Crime Stoppers program, which for decades has allowed people to make anonymous tips about crimes in exchange for cash rewards, was expanded to the jail last fall.
