A young sexual assault victim is being held in juvenile hall to
ensure her appearance at the rapist's hearing. WEAVE has heard
from many dismayed and outraged members of our community and we
share your concerns about the rights of the victim in this
situation and fears that it will discourage other victims from
coming forward in the future.
Rest assured that WEAVE has shared these concerns with the
District Attorney's Office and is in communication about the
matter.
Our mission and purpose has always been and continues to be
serving as a voice for needs of the victim.
