“Serving Victims. Building Trust. Restoring Hope” — this was the official theme for the 2016 National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, and it underscores the importance of establishing trust with victims. Each April, Crime Victims’ Rights Week brings attention to the plight of those falling prey to the insidious acts of criminals.

Unfortunately, while the rest of the country is reflecting on the challenges of victims, California’s governor is trying to strip away decades of victim protections with an initiative that threatens the rights of every California crime victim.
