I don’t think the review bombs were a great thing to do. It’s one step from doxxing the person, who might have been just getting by and the money was enough to convince them. A negative review of a place just because it’s where something happened unrelated to the place is just ranting and not legit. I wouldn’t have done it, but I’m not in that much need of such a safety net to make the next rent payment.
We can look at it as corporate protecting corporate, but in the end isn’t this just good moderation of posts that are not appropriate for the purpose? What if this hadn’t been McD’s but a family-owned restaurant?

“1/5. mcsnitches. don’t eat here if you’re on the lam.”
would be a legit review of that particular restaurant.

I’d really like to know how they feel about turning him in now that they’re aware there’s little to no chance of them getting the reward money.
