Just being able to make accusations to the police and remain anonymous might lead to lots of false accusations just because someone had a grudge against another - (not that grudges ever happen in The Villages).

The police already have a special process where one can anonymously report a crime or related information. It's called Crime Watchers. No ID information requested, none need be given.
