Victim Witness Program: Case Study

Our Victim Witness Program contains a small waiting for crime victims. The victim waiting area is designated for victims of crime only. Because our Superior Court is located directly in front of our office, our victims are able to come to our office during court hearings and trials. Our Victim Waiting area allows victims to have a safe, quite and comfortable area while the court is taking a break, the victim is waiting to testify or a jury is out deliberating. The use of the victim waiting area will decrease the chance the victim will run into or have to see the defendant or have possible contact with juror. This area is also used for victims when they are required t come to the office to have a meeting with the prosecuting and/or defense attorneys.
