St. Louis jail turns away inmates; looks to police precincts for space
SUMMARY: Sure, please provide the content you’d like me to summarize, and I’ll help you with that!
The St. Louis City Justice Center is not taking new inmates. FOX 2 has learned that prisoner processing is now closed. The order came down over the weekend, despite the fact that the jail is not full.
The CJC can hold about 860 inmates. As of Monday, city records show the facility was well under 100 inmates below capacity, with 722 inmates last reported inside.
After learning of the order to close prisoner processing from internal city emails, the Department of Public Safety told FOX 2 that it’s in response to the July 24 fight involving four inmates sent to the hospital. #stlouis #jail #inmates #crime #gang #violence

Why Netflix is streaming NFL games on Christmas Day
SUMMARY: The way fans watch NFL games has evolved significantly, with Netflix now streaming major matchups, including Chiefs vs. Steelers and Ravens vs. Texans on Christmas Day. This shift comes as Netflix aims to compete with platforms like Amazon that host “Thursday Night Football.” Amidst concerns about technical difficulties encountered during previous live events, Netflix is pursuing a live programming strategy, moving beyond traditional cable and satellite frameworks. Experts suggest that Netflix is responding to shifting viewer habits due to cord-cutting trends. Games will also be available locally and through the NFL+ app for those without Netflix subscriptions.
