VIP
We in law enforcement have a special
obligation to the most vulnerable of
crime victims. Those who have suffered
life-devastating crimes - elder abuse, sexual
assault, stalking, family violence and hate
crime - should be treated with dignity and
supported. They deserve all the compassion
and protection that we in the criminal justice
system can provide.
To ensure that the victims of these highly
traumatic crimes are given the best possible
treatment, the District Attorney's Office has
established the Victim Impact Program
(VIP). This program places specially trained
prosecutors in Branch and Area offices
throughout the county to specifically deal
with these types of cases. This bolsters the
offices vertical prosecution efforts, ensuring
that one prosecutor handles these cases from
start to finish.
Under VIP, law enforcement also benefits.
Investigators present their cases directly to
a VIP coordinator, who assigns each to a
specially trained prosecutor and oversees
their handling. This assures expert treatment
from beginning to end.
