Every April, the U.S. Department of Justice leads communities throughout the country in annual observances of National Crime Victim’s Rights Week.
The Victim/Witness Coordinators at the Carbon County Sheriff’s Office always recognize the work done on behalf of victims here.
This year, the group is doing it with a twist. They’re urging citizens to exercise caution about a scam related to the coronavirus crisis. Cali O’Hare reports.
