State Police To Assign Domestic Violence Coordinators

The Maryland State Police said it is going to begin assigning domestic violence investigation coordinators to each of the state's 22 barracks to better support victims and combat the problem.

The newly appointed coordinators will review each reported incident or anything that might be related to domestic violence. That person will then get in touch with the victim and work to get them counseling and peace or protective orders to help prevent future abuse.
 

"By assigning domestic violence coordinators at each barrack, troopers can better serve victims living in these horrible situations," said police Col. Marcus Brown. "The coordinators will ensure all available resources are utilized to protect the rights and safety of the victims and their families."

  3. I'd be more impressed if they were assigning troopers to school security details. I've about had it with this so called "domestic" abuse and the so called "victims." 99.9% times these incidents are caused by drugs and/or alcohol abusing irresponsible people who like to fight and cause drama anyway.
    They call the cops then the next hour they "love" each other again. Hardly ever is it the beaten down feeble looking woman who is not allowed out of the house type of thing. It both white and black trash who love to fight with each other, not politically correct to say but the truth.

  5. They had these ten years ago and it was a failed program, thats why they did away with it. The coordinators did nothing but rely on the officers,troopers to do the work and then they spent 2 minutes of their 8 hour day making a phone call to ask the victim if they were ok and did nothing for the rest of the day.

  6. Does Social Services have the Advocacy Ctr. that gets involved with this? Isn't it another duplication of services? Why wouldn't the state police handle the safety aspect with regard to protecting the citizen? Also, doesn't the States Attorney's office handle these cases? Just questioning why another salary is needed.

  8. This is why we need a Spousal Abuse Registry like we have with Sex Offenders. You abuse your spouse you go on the public type abuser registry so all can see who you are and protect themselves from you. How many people..Female / Male would be protected from these monsters if they could go on a site and check up on someone before dating them or if they meet out , they could check this registry and see if they have abused in the past and stay clear of them.
