#1 I dunno...the U.S. government has a rather spotty reward when it comes to paying off rewards. There are all sorts of technicalities that can be used to deny reward payments. The man who found the D.C. sniper, for instance, never received a dime.

If I recall correctly, he declined any reward.

#4 The sniper tipster is Ron Lantz. He stated that he wanted to either give the entire amount or share at least half with the victims' families (account varies by source). However I can't find any mention of it being paid out. When/If he's ever paid, he may not receive the full $500,000 regardless as there were other people who provided useful tips that led to the information Lantz used to I.D. the car.
