I want to know how much of the "up to" 60k reward this person got and how they spend it.

[–] [email protected] 95 points 1 week ago (2 children)

You mean the $60k bounty? The cops will happily relinquish that $50k as promised. Keep in mind that the $40k will only be given if it leads to a conviction, though, and the bank will probably put a hold on the full $30k. But that's OK. $20k is still a life-changing amount, even if you won't get all of the promised $10k after taxes.

Hey, it's amazing what you can do with $5k. You can get a brand new iPad Pro for $999.

Money is just a number and slavery is freedom.

Their reward is fulling their duty to their betters at the Capital!

May the odds be ever in their favor.

It was done on the clock. So the restaurant owner is going to claim it.

I don't know if this is /s or not at this point.

It's always surprising how little it takes for the rich to make people turn against others.

Feature, not a bug. It would be much more expensive for them so pull something like this off if our needs were met.

Hell, $60k? You can buy a senator for less.
