The state of Texas has robust laws in place to protect victims and their rights. In Texas a victim of crime is defined as someone who is the victim of sexual assault, kidnapping, or aggravated robbery or who has suffered bodily injury or death because of the criminal conduct of another, the close relative (spouse, parent, adult brother or sister, or child) of a deceased victim, or the guardian of a victim. The law also applies to victims of juvenile crime, including victims who suffer property loss. As do most states, In Texas, victims of crime are guaranteed certain rights and participation in the criminal justice system under Texas law. The Crime Victims’ Rights are within the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure.
