Why not create a bounty on criminals? If the guy helps apprehend a criminal isn’t that worth a $1000 prize. Have the criminal work that off in prison.
i mean if the victim isn’t a violent criminal, he or she can keep the attacker’s gun.
and if you sit for five minutes and think about all the potential problems this will cause amateurs, given all the problems professional insured and licensed bounty hunters go through?
there is already crimestoppers that victims and others can leave tips on and get rewards.
