Testimonials

“I was out on a Saturday with my kids, got a tip, sent it to Peoria Police, and we were able to get in the house, search the house, get the BB gun out of the house because it wasn’t a real one. Within 20 minutes we were able to solve all of that thanks to tip411.”

– Peoria IL Public Schools Safety Director Demario Boone

“People are on their phones constantly and so we make it very easy for people to leave that tip,” Loeber said. “And I think it’s empowered a lot of people because it is completely anonymous and they feel comfortable sharing information that way.”

– Jenks Middle School District Spokesperson Rob Loeber

“We have a mix of different types of tips. Some are things about the parking lot and someone driving erratically that they want us to look into and this has been really wonderful for us in that we have the ability to reach back out to the tipster ask follow-up questions, encourage them, depending on the tip to come meet with administration or a counselor.”
