When there’s a cash reward for helping the police catch a fugitive, suppose the fugitive turns himself in. Is he entitled to get the reward? (No, I’m not “asking for a friend”.)
In many countries there are laws against criminals benefiting financially from their crimes, so I should think they would be excluded from receiving a reward for turning themselves in.
