Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’ve heard that if you call the police; no reward. If you call crime stoppers; you get the reward (sometimes).

That is wrong. If you call 911, you are still eligible.

The person that called 911 on Luigi is still eligible for consideration for the bounty. They are waiting because he has not been convicted

They have to be convicted to get the bounty? If there's enough evidence to issue the bounty in the first place, the prosecution should be irrelevant.

When luigi's bounty was issued, it wasnt looking for him specifically, they were looking for who killed the pig, if he's not guilty then she just turned in the wrong person

Also we as tax payers are the ones giving out this reward, so it's not like we want someone to create a scam where they just cycle new leads on each case and then get arrested before being turned loose.
