Ty Pennington isn't one to take a backseat when someone is in need.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition's main man has offered up a $10,000 reward for anyone with information about a hit-and-run accident that left the cousin of his comanager, Bill Stankey, on life support.

kinda sad how nowadays you need money to buy justice eh? The cops dont care enough to really find the driver so he has to do it on his own.

$10,000 is being offered to entice whomever to come forward who would otherwise go about their business. The idea that it will take a reward says more about regular citizen folk then it does about the "man"

I've never understood rewards, I'd come forward regardless. Is someone really sitting at home going "I dunno if I should report this... but a few thousand may change my mind."?
