Why can't I get a $2500 reward for pointing out a crack dealer? I wanna know. Because, according to this here, if your neighbor makes up a convincing story about you and your APBTs and gets you convicted for having 4 dogs and a parting stick, they stand to get $2,500. If this is old news I'm sorry, but I can't believe while good samaritans rarely get the credit they deserve when they save someone's life, AR organizations and police task forces are ponying up money to people who might be fabricating false accusations about their neighbors or "the guy down the street with 5 pit bulls".
