If the police believed every single tip they get they would be tangled in a web of lies going in different directions. Many people give the police false tips by either lying or really believing something because they are either delusional or very misguided. That's not just a few people either. The police had 1000s of tips on this case leading nowhere. It's a sick thing, but it's not uncommon. People lie. The cops follow up on tips but if they find no evidence there's nothing they can do.
Some of the people who "helped" look for Jacob in the days after his abduction were sex offenders. Quite a few lived in the area. I wish this family could get some closure. They need to know what really happened.
They may have only had to register for a certain amount of years. In my state if they are marked as predators they have to register for life and the ones that arent only have to register for 10 years.
@brainwashedmasses The complaint pictured in this video is Wright County, filed on 04/03/1995 charging 1st degree CSC on a child (CAA). This was 5 years after the Wetterling abduction. Prior to that Richard Bahner Jr. was convicted on 9/6/1988 of two counts CSC in Stearns County where he got 15 years of Supervised Release. His brother Mike was also convicted in the 95 Wright County case and got 25 years of SR for that one. Richard Bahner Sr is also a SO with a conviction in 1985 for CSC 1/3

Neither Richard Bahner nor Michael Bahner show up on any sex offender registry...
I can't seem to find any information about these people that doesn't originate here...

That's a good question. i would suggest the reason is that they did not find this information. Ego.
