Interim Hearing On Victim & Witness Rights In Criminal Proceedings, Asembly Subcommittee On Criminal Justice Resources Dec 1981

Interim Hearing On Victim & Witness Rights In Criminal Proceedings, Asembly Subcommittee On Criminal Justice Resources

California Assembly

One in five Americans, almost, are victims of some sort of crime every year in this country.

Adding to this trauma of being a crime victim is a criminal justice system which pays astonishingly little attention to the needs and the concerns …

The subcommittee has called this hearing today for the purpose of examining the crisis of diminishing resources which currently affect programs and services in Los Angeles County and throughout the State. Local governments, in the wake of Proposition 13, have reduced expenditures for many important functions, including criminal justice functions. Probation departments in this process have been particularly vulnerable to reductions in programs and staffing and have received ·heavier cuts than other criminal justice agencies. The decline in probation resources raises important questions about the future role of probation in the criminal justice process. Among the most important of these …
