Couldn't you just say "hey, the police would like to talk to these persons of interest, do you know who they are"? Or something of that nature?

I'm all for trying to find out who the people are if you need to find out, but putting a dollar figure on it just rubs me the wrong way.

Good luck though, I hope you guys find your men.

Yes, we could have. However time is of the essence here, and we took all of the recommendations you see directly from the Chicago Police Department. They recommended a direct cash incentive would be the quickest and easiest way to find both of these guys.
