Your rights
Victims of crime are guaranteed certain notification rights and participation in the criminal justice system under an amendment to the Missouri Constitution and laws that took effect in 1993.
The rights discussed in this publication automatically apply to victims of violent crimes (which may include arson, assault, kidnapping, manslaughter, murder, rape, robbery, sodomy or an attempt to commit one of these crimes).
This booklet can help you to better understand the court process during these difficult times for crime victims and families of deceased victims.
