Who:
A CRIME VICTIM is a person who suffers direct or threatened physical, psychological, or financial harm as a result of the commission or attempted commission of a crime or delinquent act. The term victim also includes the person’s spouse, parents, children, sibling, or guardian, and includes a lawful representative of a crime victim who is decreased, a minor, or physically or psychologically incapacitated. The term victim does not include a person in custody for an offense, the accused, or a person whom the court finds would not act in the best interest of a minor victim.
