Call Nebraska CrimeStoppers!

 

CrimeStoppers is a program that is used throughout the United States and and other countries.  It's basic purpose is to provide a network to allow crime-solving tips from the public to be forwarded to Law Enforcement authorities.  This network is set up in such a way to allow the caller to remain completely anonymous, which encourages people to report illegal activity.  It also allows for cash rewards to be paid to citizens who report illegal activity to the Police.  This also encourages people to call in tips. 

 

Nebraska CrimeStoppers started the program in 1989.  A board consisting of citizens at large, law enforcement officers, and members of the media governs it.
