SUMMARY : Recognizes the week of April 18, 2010, through April
24, 2010, as Crime Victims' Rights Week. Specifically, this
resolution makes the following legislative findings:
1)The remembrances observed during National Crime Victims'
Rights Week promote awareness of victim issues and acknowledge
the combined efforts of citizens, government, and the criminal
justice system to improve victims' services in California.
2)Through the passage of Proposition 8, the Crime Victims' Bill
of Rights, in 1982, and Proposition 9, the Victims' Bill of
Rights Act of 2008: Marsy's Law, California citizens have
protected victims' rights in the California Constitution.
3)Since 1981, National Crime Victims' Rights Week has raised
awareness of the special needs of crime victims; and, this
year's theme is "Crime Victims' Rights: Fairness, Dignity,
Respect".
