VICTIMS’ RIGHTS

During National Crime Victims' Rights Week, Sheriff Vincent DeMarco and Deputy Sheriff Reeve recognized Laura Ahearn and the new Crime Victims Center for their commitment to victims' services.  The Crime Victims Center provides vital information and multi-agency service referrals for support and assistance to victims of violent crime.  The center also links victims to the New York State Crime Victims Board for medical and counseling expenses and essential personal property losses.  By visiting www.vinelink.com, or making one toll-free call to 1-88-VINE-4-NY, a victim can immediately learn the custody status of any offender housed in any of New York's jails.
