i feel the same way it makes me no cence letting law enforcement go while the criminals are sitting back lafhing about this it's just plain crazy letting the police go why can't they meaning the mayor and the rest of the govt bodies take a cut in their nice income but they'll not all the well crime still rises
I would have to concur with Kirk on this. Government on all levels talk "Big" about security but react "small". Look at our level of security nationally on Christmas day in Detroit. The groups or individuals that have a passion to inflict harm know all too well that holding high standards for security is tidious and costly. Anyway, the end result is that we wait for things to happen and then address the situation...seems to almost be the American way.
FUNNY, CRIME IS ON THE RISE, BUT THE CITIES IN THIS PART OF THE STATE ARE LETTING POLICE OFFICERS GO. THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENCE. LET’S CUT THE BUDGETS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND OTHER EMERGENCY PERSONEL. ON 9-11 THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY FOUND OUT WE ARE NOT AS SAFE AS WE THINK. WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THREATS COMING FROM AFAR AS WELL AS AT HOME. SO LET’S KEEP LAYING OFF OUR LAW ENFORECEMENT, AND CUTTING BACK ON THE MILITARY. AND SPEND THE MONEY ON LESS IMPORTANT THINGS. FROM A FORMER MILITRARY POLICE OFFICER.

What is Crime Stoppers? The Crime Stoppers Program is managed by the Winnebago County Sheriff's office Crime Stopper Division, which is located in the Public Safety Building. The city of Rockford helps pay part of the operating costs of the Division which is staffed by one full time Deputy who acts as the program coordinator, Richard Gambini, and one full time assistant who is employed by Crime Stoppers. View more information on their website. |
| How does it work? People with information regarding criminal activity and fugitive locations are often reluctant to talk to law enforcement officials because they fear retaliation. The Crime Stoppers Program is designed to protect the identity of callers who are never asked their name when they give information, and we do not use caller ID. The caller is assigned a code number, which is used on the information file, and the referral sheet is forwarded to the appropriate agency for the follow up investigation. Callers also use their code to check on the status of the case, add information to the case, report other criminal activity, and to collect their reward. Crime Stoppers pays a cash reward up to $1,000.00 when an arrest is made or a crime is solved as a result of the caller's information. The amount of payment to the Crime Stopper caller is determined by the program coordinator and the Crime Stoppers Board of Directors who meet twice monthly to set the rewards. |
| $1000 REWARD
Callers with information about crimes can call the special Crime Stoppers phone numbers and anonymously give Crime Stoppers information. Each Caller is assigned a number, and if the tip results in an arrest, a reward will be paid. Rewards of up to $1000 will be presented for information that leads to an arrest. Crime Stoppers never asks your name. We do not have Caller ID. Paydates are twice a month.
QUICK 50 Students attending any school in Winnebago County can call the Crime Stoppers numbers and report any crime that has happened on school property involving students. Call to report any student bringing weapons, drugs or alcohol to school. If the information provided results in an arrest, a suspension or both, the caller will receive a reward of up to $50.
