88-Crime logo

88-CRIME is a telephone hotline (882-7463); a website
(www.88crime.org); and text site (274637, enter”Tip259” plus text message) to report information about any unsolved felony crime.  Tipsters are never asked to give their names, and tips are never recorded or traced.  Rewards are available up to $1,000.00 dollars if the tip results in the arrest and indictment of a felony suspect.  88-CRIME also accepts COLLECT CALLS.

You can take an active role in keeping our streets safe.  Anytime you have information about someone wanted by the police or a crime that has been committed, all you need to do is to contact 88-CRIME (882-7463).

Since this program of the Pima County Attorney’s Office began in 1980, tips to 88-CRIME have been responsible for more than 4500 felony arrests and more than 100 million dollars in recovered stolen property and seized illegal drugs.  Thanks to the anonymous tips from tipsters, 88-CRIME has helped take a host of murderers, child molesters, armed robbers, burglars and drug dealers off of our streets.

If the information from tipsters results in the arrest and indictment of a felony suspect, the tipster is eligible for a cash reward.  The program has already given out more than $1,204,600.00 dollars for rewards since its inception.  The reward fund is financed by donations and contributions.  NO TAX DOLLARS ARE USED TO PAY OUT REWARDS.

88-CRIME is a 24 hour operation, seven (7) days a week including Holidays!

The Pima County Attorney’s Office 88-CRIME Program has been seeking highly motivated volunteers to present a film “Trouble at Hand” to schools and to the community.

The nine minute film “Trouble at Hand” examines a middle school student’s conflict when she overhears a classmate boasting that he is going to bring a gun to school. 

Following the film presentation a group discussion led by the 88-CRIME volunteer will give facts and information about the use of an anonymous tip line for school students.

After application with our Volunteer Coordinator, Ms. Pat Wiedhopf, 740-5096 or pat.wiedhopf@pcao.pima.gov; and background check and fingerprints; applicants will receive training with the 88-CRIME office and then be required to volunteer at least 8 hours a month.
