Who is Crime Stoppers?
Crime Stoppers is composed of three main groups: volunteer civilian board members, the police and the media. Without all three, the program would not work. Crime Stoppers is administered by the citizen board but the police are necessary to investigate the information received and the media are necessary to create awareness and promote the program. Crime Stoppers board members are not privy to specific details of tips and police investigations but are briefed with enough case history to make an informed decision as to the amount of the reward which should be paid.
