Didn't they say they had a lot of people physically coming in to give them tips?I've never been a big fan of rewards, except that with each increase in the reward, it's a chance for the story to be covered in the media - and the attention is good. I think people who call in tips usually do it because it's the right thing to do, not to collect $.
However, in this case, with a community that is reluctant to be in contact with LE, I think the reward money might be useful.
Fingers crossed.

The post could have been deleted. It happens.I never did find it. Maybe I dreamed it, lol. I did go 36 hours without sleeping in the first few days of this case. I guess for now we should assume the breakfast part was someone's speculation. Sorry for anyone who was misled by that word. I usually can find sources, but I don't know where I got it.![]()

The following message is from Hania's Mother. A photo of her handwritten statement in Spanish is attached.
"I trust in God that my daughter will return. No one knows the pain I have in my heart. Despite all the criticism and speculation against me, I would never use my daughter’s name in order to take advantage of this situation.
I thank all those people who have provided me help. Please, if you know something, call. I ask everyone not to make absurd comments. For the love of God respect my pain. I only want Hania, my princess, back. I miss her."

Oh my! What are people saying about her? I wonder if it's gossip on SM. This has happened in every single case and it's so horrible that people do this! What is wrong with them?Lumberton Police Department | 11/13/2018 7:43pm (EST)

Wasn't the reward in Mollie Tibbetts case 250,000? What is it in this case? I thought I read 50,000 but then it was raised?

$50,000 for Jayme was last I heard. Could be more by now. Hania's to $25,000 was just raised to $25,000 + I believe another $5,000 from local LE...Wasn't the reward in Mollie Tibbetts case 250,000? What is it in this case? I thought I read 50,000 but then it was raised?
Heartbreaking. No mother should ever have to make a statement like that when her child is missing.Lumberton Police Department | 11/13/2018 7:43pm (EST)

Oops we double posted within minutes'I want my princess back:' Mother pleads for return of missing Lumberton teen :: WRAL.com
Eight days after someone kidnapped Hania Aguilar from the yard outside her Lumberton home, officials with the FBI have upped the reward for information to $25,000.
Gov. Roy Cooper's office is offering an additional $5,000 for information that leads to Hania, or an arrest.
I think many bystanders would call in a tip, just because it is the right thing to do. But a high reward may make a family member or close friend flip on a suspect and turn them in. Money talks and sometimes an unscrupulous person may be a little more "motivated" to do the right thing even if it means turning on a friend or family member.I've never been a big fan of rewards, except that with each increase in the reward, it's a chance for the story to be covered in the media - and the attention is good.

The FBI, working in conjunction with police in Lumberton, North Carolina, has released a list of changes that a person might exhibit after committing an abduction.
Chief among them are sudden alterations in behavior, missed appointments, being absent from work, or failing to answer calls or text messages.
“Think through the events of the past week, particularly the morning of Monday, Nov. 5, and consider whether you know anything that would help us,” Lumberton Police Chief Michael McNeill said in a press release from the FBI.
