But anyone can help solve crimes. That\u2019s the philosophy behind CrimeStoppers Honolulu, the nonprofit that encourages community members submit anonymous tips \u2014 and rewards them for information that leads to an arrest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe are promoting a culture of \u2018force multipliers,\u2019\u201d says CrimeStoppers Honolulu police coordinator Sgt. Edmund Ho. \u201cSimply put, there are more eyes and ears out in the community that can make a difference, and by reporting anonymously, you make it your kuleana to reduce crime and improve our community, and possibly earn a cash reward of up to $1,000.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This year, CrimeStoppers Honolulu celebrates its 45th anniversary and is hosting a fundraiser gala in May.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The money raised from the evening will fund cash rewards and cover the nonprofit\u2019s operational costs. Many assume CrimeStoppers is part of the Honolulu Police Department. After all, Ho and CrimeStoppers police officer Deanna Strikolis are HPD employees. But it\u2019s actually a separate organization that relies on donations from the public to fulfill its mission.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThere are so many charities out there and everyone has a good cause,\u201d says CrimeStoppers Honolulu board president Sanj Sappal, a former area vice president for Securitas in the Hawaiian Islands. \u201cAnd there is only so many dollars that can go around and that is the biggest challenge.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The CrimeStoppers call center is the organization\u2019s backbone. It\u2019s staffed by approximately 20 volunteers who come from all walks of life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Some are retirees who wanted to stay active and engaged. Others are college students interested in pursuing law enforcement as a career. The longest-serving volunteer has been with CrimeStoppers for more than 30 years. The newest started earlier this year. One of them is in her 80s. Another is in her 20s.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">They work four-to-five-hour shifts, usually once a week but sometimes more if needed. Volunteer Frances Camacho was recently recognized for having put in the most hours in the past five years because of her willingness to fill in when others can\u2019t make it.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0In addition to answering phones, volunteers parse through tips, ask callers clarifying questions and document the information they receive so that it can be distributed to police officers and investigators.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">According to CrimeStoppers volunteer coordinator Donna Takahashi-Gomes, who is an HPD civilian employee, call center volunteers go through a list of questions when someone calls in with a tip. These are questions police need answered to verify a tip.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Takahashi-Gomes has been on the job for almost a decade, and she\u2019s developed a feel for \u201chot tips,\u201d or tips that have a good chance of leading to an arrest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWhen (the callers) say they see the fugitive in front of them, that\u2019s how we know,\u201d she says. \u201cThat\u2019s when we ask, \u2018OK, what are they wearing?\u2019 If they say, \u2018Oh he\u2019s wearing a pink aloha shirt\u2019 or \u2018an orange shirt\u2019 or something, we say, \u2018Where are they right now?\u2019 If they say, \u2018Oh, by the 7-Eleven,\u2019 we say, \u2018Which 7-Eleven?\u2019 \u2018Oh you know the one by Kap\u0101lama Stream.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">At that point, Takahashi-Gomes says, she lets the caller continue talking to the volunteer while she jumps on her own computer to look up the address. She then hustles to get all of that information to police dispatchers, who send officers to the location.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Arrests can happen quickly, which adds to the excitement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Ho recalls a tip about a fugitive wanted on a $20,000 bench warrant. The caller told volunteers where the fugitive was at that moment. The tip went to dispatchers and within minutes police had the wanted individual in custody.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">When a tip results in an arrest, Takahashi-Gomes says she hits the button on her desk that blares out the lyrics to <i>Another One Bites the Dust by Queen<\/i>, and the office celebrates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">CrimeStoppers volunteer Paulette Ing likes to bring in a box of doughnuts when she gets a tip that leads to an arrest. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This is why when police dispatchers ask volunteers if they would like an update on how a tip turned out, they say yes. Yes, they want to know if their work paid off. That\u2019s their reward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt\u2019s humbling and I feel real good afterward knowing that I helped the community and police officers keep the community safe,\u201d says volunteer John Gomes (no relation to Takahashi-Gomes).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Gomes\u2019 employer, Hawaiian Electric, recently recognized him with a company award for his time with CrimeStoppers. He says CrimeStoppers has motivated him to look into other ways to volunteer with HPD and help the community. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Callers who bring in successful tips also share in the good vibes because their tip could earn them a cash reward. And they never have to reveal their identity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">According to Ho, to date CrimeStoppers has helped solve 10,225 cases, made 3,072 arrests and given out $392,731 in rewards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cQuite simply put, our call center volunteers are the backbone of the success of our program,\u201d Ho says. \u201cThough we have our online submission and mobile P3 tips app, there is no replacement for the heartfelt desire and interest that our dedicated volunteers pride themselves with (when) they relay tips accurately, concisely and completely.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, not all tips are cut and dry. Sometimes officers may get to a location and find that the person they were looking for is no longer there, or that it wasn\u2019t the wanted individual after all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Volunteers field all kinds of calls. In addition to tips about fugitives (who are featured in <i>MidWeek<\/i>), they may get information about missing persons or reports of illegal drug use. Many callers complain about illegal gambling operations. These are less likely to result in an immediate arrest or resolution, but volunteers take down the information and Ho makes sure the information gets to investigators.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Volunteers also get calls about animal cruelty and bullying or threats to students via the Animal CrimeStoppers and Student CrimeStoppers hotlines. Police work with the Hawaiian Humane Society and school administrators to address those.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The most difficult calls are from folks who are upset or distraught. It could be because someone is harassing them or speeding in a residential neighborhood or dealing illegal drugs. They want police officers to respond right away. However, Ho says there\u2019s a difference between CrimeStoppers and HPD.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">CrimeStoppers was designed for the community to share information anonymously without fear of retribution, he says. Ultimately, its purpose is to help police solve crimes and locate fugitives and missing persons featured on social media, local TV news and publications such as <i>MidWeek<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cOne of the most frequent comments I\u2019ve heard over the past year when our volunteers are taking phone calls or when I\u2019m responding to information from our website or via our P3 Tips app is, \u2018Aren\u2019t you the police?\u2019\u201d says Ho. \u201cWhile (officer Strikolis) and I are indeed HPD officers, CrimeStoppers is not a substitute for immediate emergency response via 911 and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>not a substitute for filing a police report for criminal cases in progress or where a crime has occurred.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not everyone gets to be a police officer.
