Crime Stoppers programs are non-profit organizations led by citizens against crime. Our Crime Stoppers program offers cash rewards of up to $1,000 to persons providing anonymous information that leads to the arrest of criminals and fugitives. Information is received through anonymous Crime Stoppers tips that are received through a secure tips line or through a secure web connection manned by our program’s Law Enforcement coordinator. Each caller is assigned a computer generated code number for the purpose of ensuring anonymity. Crime Stoppers is based on the principal that someone other than the criminal has information that can solve a crime and was created to combat the three major problems faced by law enforcement in generating that information: Fear of REPRISAL, An attitude of APATHY, and Reluctance to get INVOLVED. Crime Stoppers resolves these problems by: Offering ANONYMITY to people who provide information about crimes, and paying REWARDS when the information supplied leads to an arrest.
