Partner 3 of 3 - The Police
Appoint a
coordinator to operate the Crime Stoppers program on a
daily basis and
provide staff to maintain an office that takes tips on the Crime Stoppers
line.
Callers are
never asked to identify themselves and there is
no equipment in the
office that
records voices or
traces telephone numbers.
Anonymity is
guaranteed. (By State Law!!!!)
Those who call
Crime Stoppers receive a
code number that allows them to claim a
reward once an arrest has been made.
The police are
also required to investigate the various Crime
Stoppers tips and
report back to the
coordinator when a case is solved.
