Can confirm.. store manager.

I joke that our policy for shoplifters is to offer them a bag.

In reality it's to offer them a cart as a non accusatory way of saying "I see you"

As for bills I had my boss suggest I take them to the bank. I had to clarify "and I tell them I believe there is a counterfeit in there... Right ... Otherwise it's dangerously close to trying to pass a counterfeit myself... A felony...."

He paused and answered "sure if that makes you more comfortable"

To be clear I understand and agree with a lot of it. Why should I ask my workers to risk their life over some toothpaste? Why should I ask them to risk their life confronting a counterfeiter who is already done commiting felonies.

I also understand it doesn't help the company. One dead worker will cost the company more than all the product a person could steal. Even with insurance the cost of training even a cashier is nearly $1000. It goes up from there.

It is still frustrating and my employees often take a lot of training to convince them not to care if someone is stealing.

And customers also get frustrated when they tell me someone is stealing and I give them an answer like "that's unfortunate " and go back to work.

this doesn't really add to the discussion, but i just wanted to say thanks for sharing a source. I feel like i don't see it enough, so i appreciate you taking the time to share it

both the arrest and conviction of the suspect

Makes perfect sense, but that's just a matter of time.

might not be eligible for [the NYPD] part of the reward.

OK, so maybe they won't be getting 10k of the 60k. They would still get 50k if he's convicted. So many people are definitively saying that they're getting none of the money, and that makes no sense.

This one was posted further up. The tl;dr is that because they didn't call the NYPD tip line, they definitely* won't get the $10,000 from them, barring major backlash that may make them walk that back.

The $50,000 from the FBI is up in the air, but is dependent on him getting convicted. There's some wording that someone else pointed to about the tip needing to lead to an arrest AND conviction, saying that because the tip itself only lead to the arrest, they won't be paid, but I'm uncertain about that.

I mentioned in another comment that if the 1% want us to keep snitching, these high profile situations kinda need to pay out.

That's why everyone who cares needs to spread the word.

People don't need to care. They might share it as a fun factoid, they might just say that's crazy and never think about it again

Until they're in a position to get a reward... They'll care then. That little idea they heard in passing will pop up... Maybe it gives them pause.

$10k is pretty tempting for a lot of people...a chance at a $10k reward they've heard rarely is paid out is a lot less tempting

Maybe they Google it first, maybe they think twice about if the crime is worth reporting. Maybe they see the world in black and white and believe it to be their duty

It's worth spreading some information, even to people that don't care

Lol of course there's stupid hoops like that.

So anybody who is out and about and sees a fugitive with a publicized reward should know...don't call 911. Call John Walsh, or pound sand.

Probably gotta call a specific extension that's only staffed from 10am to 2:30pm with a 2 hour lunch from 11:15 to 1:15 on the first and third weeks of the month and 12:15 to 2:15 on the other weeks.
