TKC BREAKING NEWS!!! KANSAS CITY REWARD FOR HOMICIDE TIPS INCREASED TO $25K!!! KCPD CHIEF HOPES MORE THAN DOUBLING CASH CURBS MURDER RATE!!!
Local authorities are making a serious investment in the effort to reduce crime at the outset of the Summer.
Here's the money line:
"The anonymous reward amount for successful homicide tips RISES from $10,000 to $25,000 through Greater Kansas City Crime Stoppers. This increase will be accompanied by an extensive marketing campaign to ensure everyone knows about it, especially in the areas where the most violent crime occurs. The City of Kansas City is making a substantial investment in this effort."
There is reason to be excited about the effort.
The top cop explains:
KCPD CHIEF: "An amount like $25,000 can be life-changing for some, and our hope is that it will lead to justice for the families of murder victims. Beyond that, we believe it will have a deterrent effect. Maybe bringing a gun to settle an argument isn’t such a good idea with an incentive of $25,000 motivating those with information to come forward.
"The population of Omaha, Neb., is only slightly smaller than Kansas City’s. Omaha has been offering a $25,000 reward for successful homicide tips for some time. Their city had only 20 homicides last year. Kansas City had 138. Reward money may not be the only factor, but it does appear to impact violent crime in Omaha."

KCPD CHIEF SMITH: Major changes underway to fight against violent gun crimes in Kansas City
Highlights also include:
Changing the focus of Kansas City No Violence Alliance (KC NoVA), supporting the Crime Gun Intelligence Center and continuing community outreach.
Will it work???
You decide . . .
That's a lot of money and there's evidence that it has worked before. One of the very few allocations from KCMO that might pay off.
ReplyDeleteThese obscene property assessments work wonders don't they?
ReplyDeleteThey might start by DEFUNDING all the ridiculous and completely ineffective and unaccountable "programs" like Aim4Peace, NoVa, ad Hoc, Mothers in Charge, and who knows what else, and putting the money into putting more cops on the streets in high-crime areas as well as increasing the rewards for tips.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad that the public has to pay people to look out for themselves and their neighborhoods, but at least maybe fewer innocent people won't get caught in the crossfire.
Is a conviction required to get the reward? It should be. If so, this will have no impact. The hood rats know that Jean Petersucker Baker will not prosecute a murder case aggressively. They are completely aware of how worthless Jean Petersucker Baker is.
ReplyDelete^^hey look...Matlock's on!
ReplyDeleteHey millennial stay your smart phone dumb arse
DeleteBeats that reparations bs. At least its earned this way.
ReplyDeleteThis might work, for no money I made up lies about my brother that kept you idiots talking for years and still do. So for 25k I would say anything to get you arrested.
ReplyDeleteOmaha may be of similar size to Kansas City, but Kansas City is more useful to the cartels. From time to time, Tony prints a map that explains this rather well. So, you will always have more crime than them regardless of what you do, unless & until, the cartels are militarily defeated, & Mexico reclaims sovereignty over its northern provinces.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it would help if your police had the resources to reclaim sovereignty over your neighborhoods.
This reward will make the paranoids more paranoid. Don't be surprised if it causes the murder rate to go up. I don't expect anyone to acknowledge that, they'll just assign blame somewhere else.
P.S. Naturally, I didn't make the first comment.
ReplyDeleteMark never retaliated because the truth was on my side.
The Petersucker at 10:10 wants to raise property taxes so you can build a bigger jail.

ReplyDeleteThis is exactly what the koloreds wanted, more money for Escalades, that’s all this has ever been about, Escalade money.
Petersucker Petersucker Petersucker Petersucker Petersucker Petersucker Petersucker!
Shithouser is pissed off because his sweetheart is a shark as in mud
ReplyDelete@10:53 yes he did I heard Mark many a time say what a loser and a pussy you were. You just think because you never saw it in here no comments were made about you. Must really suck being the black sheep of a family that hates your guts.
ReplyDelete^^^^ wanna be black woman is what bLIEron wants but the gubmint won’t give him his sex change to become his alter ego Angela k!
ReplyDelete^^Help! I'm soooo old!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMurder is big business in the hood.
ReplyDeleteThey kill the unborn don’t they ?
DeleteOmaha's Black population is only 40% of Kansas City's (54,000 to 135,000). That explains most of the disparity in murder rates. Omaha's mayor is white, as are most of the key officials in city government. All the key leaders in the police department are white. Hence, a lower black population and an absence of black governmental corruption, leniency, and tolerance of crime = 1/7 the murder rate. That's also why it's #20 on "Best places to live in the US" list. The surprise is that Kansas City, at #49, makes the list at all.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
The biggest flaw in the Chief's explanation is that Omaha only has a 12.7% Black population, while Kansas City's is nearly 30%!
ReplyDeleteAdd to that the fact that Omaha's Police Department has been led by Whites for years, and Kansas City is now playing "catch-up" after Forte's deliberate destruction.
I hear the local used car dealers in the hood are stocking up on Escalades since the announcement! The fat fake revs are leading the pack to snitching first! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDelete^^I hear your wife killed herself to get away from your worthless ass! Miss her? Hahahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteSly James legacy is that heat and watched the homicides in KC increase without changing policy. He was a disaster for this City.
ReplyDeleteObviously Byron cannot find another blog close to home, or anywhere else for that matter, who will allow him to espouse his nonsense, so he has to assuage his ego clear back in KC. Sad.
ReplyDelete^^Dude stop. Nobody cares!!! Grow up!
ReplyDelete^^^^I care so STFU
ReplyDeleteCash for Murder tips Program LOL.
ReplyDeleteWhat he forgot is you need a real police department to catch murderers.
$25000 will buy a lot of ammo.
ReplyDeleteSure, it will help solve murders. The problem is people getting only 15 years for first degree murder.
