The money is taxable income and should be reported. If it is over $600 they must receive a W-2 and the payor reports it to the IRS. Large amounts paid as part of a TIPS program or such may even be subject to having withholding taken (similar to winning at a casino).
If some bumb on the street who gets $50 for for giving up info actually reports it on a return, lord knows.

List some reasons why police records should remain confidential even after the case has been sent to the prosecuting attorney?
There are several reasons why police records should remain confidential. The first one; the release of sensitive information related to a crime or criminal act can serve to compromise an ongoing criminal investigation. Another reason police records should remain confidential is when they apply to juvenile proceedings. Reasoning behind this is that the release of information related to juveniles such as their names, crimes and/or victimization may lead to the stigmatization of the juvenile in question thereby preventing or inhibiting their rehabilitation and/or recovery. A further reason behind the confidentiality of police records (though a rare one) is the compromising of a criminal case due to contamination of the jurors. Lastly, police reports may contain information related to a witness and possibly the informants involved in the case and the release of such information can compromise their safety particularly in circumstances surrounding police informants.

Any information received by the police from an informant must be corroborated in order for the prosecutor to be able to use it in court.
