We are the Answer, part of The Dark Knight’s viral mar­ket­ing cam­paign, www​.wearethean​swer​.org, has updated and sent out emails to thank every­one that rat­ted out on the cor­rupt police offi­cers of Gotham City:

Adam at Hol­ly­wood Chicago received this email:

Dear cit­i­zen,

Today is a momen­tous day for Gotham and for all of us who have par­tic­i­pated in We Are The Answer.

Tips from con­cerned cit­i­zens like you are help­ing to bring cor­rupt offi­cers to jus­tice. You can be proud that you have aided your fel­low cit­i­zens in tak­ing the first step toward a safer city.

Due to the over­whelm­ing cit­i­zen response, we at We Are The Answer are pour­ing through an avalanche of police cor­rup­tion tips.

We should be through with the cur­rent back­log of tips by the very begin­ning of the New Year.

Thank you again. The good cit­i­zens of Gotham have to stick together to fight crime and cor­rup­tion. All of us have a brighter future to look for­ward to.

Whilst the web­site has added this new mes­sage — the bit at the very bot­tom is inter­est­ing — it implies that a new viral cam­paign may start up some­time in the New Year (when they have got through the back­log that is):

 UPDATE: First Police Offi­cers Indicted Thanks To We Are The Answer

We Are The Answer has been over­whelmed by the reac­tion of Gotham cit­i­zens since we asked for your help. Thou­sands of con­cerned men and women who are out­raged at how Gotham City has been betrayed by the very peo­ple who are sup­posed to defend us have flooded this web­site with tips.

All of your sub­mis­sions are being inves­ti­gated, and We Are The Answer today announces the indict­ment of two GPD offi­cers for cor­rup­tion. It is with sad­ness, not pride, that We Are The Answer seems to have shown in a mat­ter of weeks how deep the cor­rup­tion in Gotham goes.

These offi­cers are Jason McCree and Larry Coniglia. McCree is sus­pected of accept­ing bribes. Larry Coniglia is under sus­pi­cion of inter­fer­ing in an inves­ti­ga­tion, rack­e­teer­ing, and assault. Coniglia is also being inves­ti­gated for the death of a Chechen gang mem­ber who died in a police hold­ing cell.

It is impor­tant to note that these offi­cers are inno­cent until proven guilty. We Are The Answer will con­tinue to fight to clean up GPD, and ensure that police offi­cers are work­ing for the cit­i­zens of Gotham and not its criminals.

Work­ing with GPD’s Inter­nal Affairs and Assis­tant Dis­trict Attor­ney Har­vey Dent, We Are The Answer has taken the first step to tak­ing back our streets from crime and cor­rup­tion. Thanks to all Gotham cit­i­zens who have helped us in this essen­tial endeavor.

NOTE: Due to the over­whelm­ing cit­i­zen response, we at We Are The Answer are pour­ing through an avalanche of police cor­rup­tion tips. We should be through with the cur­rent back­log of tips by the very begin­ning of the New Year
