PRESS RELEASE

For Immediate Release

For more information, please contact:
Henderson-Vance Crime Stoppers
Phone: 252-492-1925 

New technology optimizes the tip submission experience and effectiveness.

Henderson, NC – The Henderson-Vance Crime Stoppers are proud to announce that they have recently partnered with the Texas-based company, Anderson Software, to provide a more seamless and efficient way for students and community members to offer information to help solve and prevent crimes or other serious or life threatening matters. Anderson Software leads the industry with its latest secure and anonymous tip acquisition and management solution, called P3 Intel. This partnership allows the community to foster a relationship between law enforcement and the public to proactively create a safer community.

Tips were previously accepted via phone call only. However, The Henderson-Vance Crime Stoppers will now be accepting tips by phone, the web, and by way of the new, free P3 Tips mobile app available on the iOS and Android platforms, greatly enhancing the mobile tip submission process. Still completely anonymous, tips submitted through the P3 mobile app, unlike SMS text tips, have no length limitations and allow images, video, and documents to be uploaded with the tip. Anderson Software’s sophisticated encryption processes obscure any and all identifying information and provide assured anonymity for tipsters. 

Even without the app, there is still an easy and secure option for submitting tips from any PC or mobile browser by going to p3tips.com. Of course, tips are still welcomed through calling our hotline at 252-492-1925. Using whichever method, once a person submits a tip, they will be given a TIP ID and password. With this information they can login at p3tips.com and submit follow-up information, engage in real-time chat/two-way dialogue, be informed of the outcome of the tip, and access any pertinent reward information.

Marcus Barrow, The City of Henderson’s Chief of Police, said, “I believe P3 will be a great way for law enforcement to connect with the citizens in a way we never have before. I am thrilled that we have taken this huge leap in trying to keep pace with technology.”

The Henderson-Vance Crime Stoppers feel that utilizing Anderson Software’s P3 Tips program will enhance communications with the public, thereby building a safer and more trusting community in which everyone prospers. To further show our value of tipsters’ contribution to the community, tips leading to an arrest could result in a cash reward of up to $2,000.
