View submission: A United Healthcare CEO shooter lookalike competition takes place at Washington Square Park

Remember the "up to $10,000 reward for information about the shooter?" I sure hope people don't send thousands of credible misleading tips to the NYC police department which might distract the investigation and possibly send officers chasing false leads. That would truly be such a shame.

What a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea! We should make a list of such ideas in detail so people know what to avoid doing…

Maybe they could give the tipster a load of stock options as that is the only way to get top level tips apparently.

Even the Internet sluthes' that like to help solve crimes as a hobby aren't helping the NYPD, so the NYPD got the FBI to help.

These people would actually be helpful but they're not helping.
