Article titled “Bizarre reason why McDonald’s worker might not receive $60,000 reward for identifying Luigi Mangione” and a comment reading “a Byzantine system of arbitrary rules designed to keep people from successfully claiming what was promised to them???”
There’s a lesson here, and I hope that a lot of people will learn it.
FBI is evil and deep state and Trump will destroy them and avenge the working class people from further being oppressed.

The lesson is there to learn. Some people will blatantly ignore it.
And this is exactly why we see these sovcit crazies…
They see this sort of BS and then believe the entire world is built around secret codes and BS legal mumbo-jumbo. If you manage to crack the combination, you are set - and the reason this filthy scab didn’t get paid is because they didn’t have the correct paperwork - which in this case is basically true!
I wonder if it’s like a gambling addiction, where if your first time goes a certain way it messes you up. As in first time gamblers winning big are likely to get addicted. If people have a bad experience their first time needing to work with a big government/corporate entity they’re more likely to think everything has short cuts they’re unaware of.
The rules are complicated, as they stipulate tipsters in with a chance of the FBI portion of the reward cannot nominate themselves.
This means the McDonald’s worker will have to be put forward by an investigating agency, such as the Department of Defense or the FBI, which is then reviewed by an interagency committee.
If approved, the suggestion is passed on to the Secretary of State, who signs off on the final decision.
If that’s not tough enough, the full reward amount could also be in dispute as payment amounts are based on factors from the value of the information provided, the level of threat, the severity of danger or injury to people or property, and the degree of the source’s cooperation.
As for the NYPD’s $10k, the rewards program is granted through Crime Stoppers, where tipsters receive a unique reference number.
This number is crucial as the tipster has to use it call back or check the status of the investigation online before lodging a claim with the NYC Police Foundation and the Crime Stoppers Board of Directors, who ultimately decide whether to approve the tip and instruct the caller how to receive it.
So, if the informant called 911 instead of Crime Stoppers, they might be unable to make the claim.
In both cases, the rewards will only be paid out if the arrest leads to indictment or conviction from the court - so the McDonald’s employee could be waiting a while and even at the end of it all, might not even get a dime.
Yeah of course they won’t be paid, they already called the police, there is no further benefit they can provide.
I don’t get it - you just posted to say an article exists, but no link to it - how is that worth posting?
And people are like, “Ooooh I need to comment on this!” - comment on what?
