I didn’t hear about this. Is there an article you can link or something?

This one was posted further up. The tl;dr is that because they didn't call the NYPD tip line, they definitely* won't get the $10,000 from them, barring major backlash that may make them walk that back.

The $50,000 from the FBI is up in the air, but is dependent on him getting convicted. There's some wording that someone else pointed to about the tip needing to lead to an arrest AND conviction, saying that because the tip itself only lead to the arrest, they won't be paid, but I'm uncertain about that.

I mentioned in another comment that if the 1% want us to keep snitching, these high profile situations kinda need to pay out.

Its pure conjecture, there is no one saying they wont be paid, just some "journalists" saying maybe he wont be paid.

Maybe this might be one of those cases where fuck the truth of the matter, we should just spread this conjecture as truth. Snitches should imagine stitches not riches.
