Anyone know what happens after a tip is submitted? I called them this morning and directed them to a video on the internet that shows what in my opinion is an unlawful act of taking an animal. I gave them my contact information and now how do I track this? What is the process?
The video offers specific names, very recognized location and the unlawful killing of what I would consider a trophy big game animal

They will reach out to you. If it gets investigated.

Well…..let’s see the video!!

That's what I was thinking too.
Link to video please.

I'm not gonna link the vid unless they don't investigate or they don't file charges

This looks like a good experiment to see how long it takes them to get back to you. The Clocks ticking! I am guessing about two weeks.

Fair enough .
Never went through the tip process,sorry can't answer.
Investigation could take a day,month,years ,who knows.
If it is as bad as it sounds, probably not a bad thing to turn it in.

If not already done I would download and save the video. Because if it is incriminating and the posters figures it out they will remove if they can.

Update
It's been 2 weeks since my initial TIP. I called today to see about an update. The kinda rude female who answered said I needed a FOIA request submitted. I said you have all my contact information and I'm sure my name is in your system regarding this TIP. nope--gotta do the paperwork. I emailed Chief Steve Bear around 11. Told him about the situation and I was just looking for an update, all my contact details are on file, and anything he could do to help me would be great. About 3 I get a call from someone who reports direct to the chief ( sorry I forgot his name). He tells me yes it is being investigated. Told him great that's all I needed for now. Asked him if he watched the vid. Yes---ok what was your opinion on it ? " I don't have one. I take the evidence, give it to my Officers and they have their discretion ". At least someone is looking into it
