Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody and “America's Most Wanted" host John Walsh urge residents and tourists to use **TIPS to anonymously report crimes.
"And at the same time, we want to foster this spirit of individuals and citizens feeling like guardians of protectors of their communities are part of a team with law enforcement, which is why we are encouraging those relationships, fostering trust in that community, and encouraging to join this team with John Walsh and Florida Crime Stoppers and participate in anonymous crime reporting," she said. Danielle Wallace is a reporter for Fox News Digital covering politics, crime, police and more. Story tips can be sent to danielle.wallace@fox.com and on Twitter: @danimwallace.
When she first came into office in January 2019, Moody said Florida had 27 different crime reporting lines, and Floridians needed to look up the specific region’s Crime Stoppers number to report a crime. Moody and the Florida Association of Crime Stoppers first launched **TIPS, a state uniform anonymous crime tip reporting line, in October 2020, allowing citizens to simply dial the six-key tipline on a cellphone to be automatically rerouted to the nearest regional Crime Stoppers office.
