The California VINE system is a service through
which victims of crime can use the telephone or
Internet to search for information regarding the
custody status of their offender and to register to
receive telephone and e-mail notification when the
offender's custody status changes. The VINE toll-free
number for the California VINE system is (877) 411-
5588. This service is provided to assist Victims of
Crime who have a right to know about their offender's
custody status.
The VINE mobile app is the "on-the-go" version of
VINE, so that anyone can access vital information
about criminals arrested in the community.
VINE mobile is free to crime victims and is
anonymous for users. It is available for both iPhone
and Android smart phone users.

There are moments in life when you wish you could bring someone down from
Heaven...and spend the day with them just one more time, give them one more hug,
kiss them goodbye or hear their voice again.
One more chance to say …. I Love You

6. In Loving Memory
It's estimated that 1 in every 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience some form of
domestic violence from an intimate partner in their lifetime. Even though an estimated
12 million people are victims of domestic violence each year, most cases go unreported
to law enforcement. While 85% of domestic violence victims are women, it's important
for all people to know how to help someone in an abusive relationship or situation find
help.
