MACON, Ga. Since 2000, Macon Regional Crimestoppers has helped clear almost 10,000 cases spanning eight Central Georgia counties, and in June, executive director Corporal Greg Thomas says they passed more than $1 million in rewards from tips. It s people sharing what they know so they can feel they re doing their part to help, says Thomas.
He says there s no set reward amount for most cases, but tips for homicides are at the top of the range. With homicides, those are the top of the scale, that s $2,000 automatically and the program pays on arrest not conviction, so therefore, there s no delay.
