Federal Agencies Help Protect Crime
Victims, Witnesses Victims and witnesses of white collar crimes have rights
under federal law to ensure that they are treated fairly during investigations and trials
and that they are reasonably protected from threats and harassment. The FDIC and other
federal and state law enforcement agencies have services and educational materials that
they provide to help crime victims and witnesses deal with the anger, confusion,
frustration or fears they may have as a result of their experience. For more information
about victim and witness assistance programs, contact an appropriate law enforcement
agency. For information from the FDIC, write to the Office of Inspector General, 801 17th
Street, NW, Washington, DC 20434.
