    Kudos to the man who gave them $5,000 of his own money. And to the Company that contributed to this couple. They went far and beyond what an average citizen would do. And All Praises go to this couple. Thank God for People like them in this World. Thank God for the donations. They Absolutely deserve the reward money. For getting a horrific criminal off the Street. Crime Stoppers you should be ashamed of yourself and your policy. Enough said Period!

    Calling 911 was the right thing to do in this case to catch the criminal, when you don't have the time to find the tip line and time is of the essence. Rules are made to be broken with exceptions and common sense.

    That was a dumb reason to withhold the money from them in the first place. Forgive me if I'm mistaken but I thought the whole point of Crime Stoppers was for citizens to help law enforcement take dangerous fugitives off the street and this couple did exactly that. Now the NTCC can give the generous donor who gave the couple the $5K his money back.

      But as soon as law enforcement gets involved in an arrest .. there is no financial reward .. because it’s seen as profiting from criminal Activity.. which is actually illegal , And crime stoppers should never 👎 offer any kind of financial reward for the capture of wanted criminals..As there would never be any kind of reward .. In the eyes of the law people do not get financial rewards for .. the capture of criminals that’s what law enforcement is for

    • @facingeast7956

      Why would he take the money back? Wasnt it a donation from his heart or just for show? Or is it that you feel the couple only deserves 5k? What are you getting at with that?

    • @hiltonlive32grnrngr
      @hiltonlive32grnrngr 10 месяцев назад +6

      @@facingeast7956 Okay, pay attention. The reward Crime Stoppers offered to help catch the fugitive was $5,000, was it not? I never said anything about (or even remotely close to) the couple only deserved $5K or about the donor not giving it from his heart. I'm sure he did but regardless the issue was, he gave them the money because Crime Stopper unfairly refused to. My point was because Crime Stoppers withheld the money from them when they should not have and the man gave them the money instead they should reimburse the man the $5,000.

The people can make a difference.... the system as you now see is the problem. We want a better society we have to do it together without the gov..

    See uts not always about the No Snitching policy! When ppl try ro do the right thing, its always met with BS. So folks just mind they dam business! Crime Stoppers has poor leadership! I hope whoever is at the top is replaced next time around. These the folks they should have set up a Go Fund Me for. GOD watching, the bigger blessing gone come! ❤

    Can someone explain to me why it almost seems like every mayor, fire and police chief is black in these crime riddled cities????? That mayor doesnt even speak fluent english let alone proper english.
