National Crime Victims’ Rights Week Commemoration
National Crime Victims’ Rights Week – April 24, 2013
In the nine days following the Boston Marathon bombing, it has been virtually impossible to open a newspaper or watch television and not see the very real impact this horrific crime had on its victims and their loved ones.
