Voices for Victims

Victim Advocate Samantha Thompson: "The innocent person has no rights. They don't know where to turn to and they don't know how to navigate the judicial system. And I think that Marsy's Law could be the answer."

Reach Counseling Program Director Marianne Radley, “I believe that the stronger victims’ rights we have, we empower more people to come forward when something happens to them”

Survivor Staci Brunner, “I was victimized again by the judicial system”

Brown County Sheriff Todd Delain, “Marsy’s Law is needed in the State of Wisconsin because a lot of effort is given to protect the rights of the accused, yet at the same time, our victims do not have the same support"

H.E.L.P. of Door County’s Steve Vickman, “Families have the right to understand what’s going on and to be able to speak in court”

Nancy Hahnisch, "My life has not been the same since this has happened”

Golden House Victim Advocate Katie Knapp: “Victims are definitely lost in the current criminal justice system.”

Reach Counseling Victim Advocate Ciara Hill: “Marsy’s Law would bring justice to the students that I work with.”

Outagamie County District Attorney Melinda Tempelis: “I think it’s important that we pass Marsy’s Law so that we can help support victims of crime in our communities and give them a voice”
