Attorney General Dana Nessel launches new crime victim rights web page

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel recently launched a webpage aimed at educating crime victims of their rights and guiding them through the legal process after a crime is reported.

The webpage, as the attorney general explains in a video, serves as a comprehensive resource, providing critical information to those affected by a crime.

The Crime Victim Rights webpage includes:

• A list of victims’ rights.

• Statewide victim support services and resources within the Department of Attorney General.

• Information on crime victim compensation.

• Guidance on victim advocates services.

• An overview of the legal process for felony and misdemeanor cases.

The Crime Victim Rights webpage can be found at www.michigan.gov/ag/initiatives/crime-victim-rights.
