HOW DOES CRIME SOLVERS WORK?

Anyone with knowledge of a crime can call 1-800-346-1466. All callers may remain anonymous with no pressure to reveal their identifies. The caller gives a brief summary of what they know. Then, the call taker assigns the caller a number which is  used in any subsequent calls to CRIME SOLVERS and when a reward is paid to the caller. If the information results in an arrest and indictment, a reward of up to $1,000 is paid to the caller.

A CRIME SOLVERS Board of Directors, comprised of up to 21 members of the community, oversees the operation of the program and approves the reward to be paid. The Board of Directors makes the determination of the reward amount, which is based upon  recommendation of the coordinators.
