LOS ANGELES ? As the manhunt for Christopher Dorner gripped Southern California last month, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced a $1 million reward for the capture of the fired LAPD officer.

Two claims have been made on the money since Dorner?s death Feb. 12 ? by a couple near Big Bear who were tied up and whose car was stolen and by a man whose pickup Dorner later hijacked.

Now, some groups that pledged money are reconsidering and Riverside, who lost an officer in the Feb. 7 shooting attributed to Dorner, won?t pay the $100,000 it promised.

The groups and agencies said they offered the reward for information that would have led to the capture and conviction of Dorner, neither of which occurred. Dorner committed suicide when cornered in a burning cabin near Big Bear.

Riverside city spokeswoman Cindie Perry wrote in an email Monday, March 25, that because ?the two conditions set forth in the (Riverside council) resolution were not met,? the city will not pay its $100,000 pledge.

Riverside City Council members approved the reward for ?information leading to the arrest and conviction? of whoever killed Riverside Police Officer Michael Crain and wounded his partner, Officer Andrew Tachias, she said.

Underlying many of the group?s objections is a moral argument that donors will not make publicly. Some find the claims for the money unseemly.

They believe reward seekers had called police to report they were victims of crimes by Dorner and now seek to profit from their brief encounters, which left them unharmed during a rampage that devastated the families of police officers and of others he killed.
