In a gathering that celebrates resilience and solidarity, the Collin County Criminal District Attorney's Office held its Annual Crime Victims’ Rights Luncheon last week. This event, aligned with the National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, aimed not only to honor survivors but also to commend the efforts of law enforcement and the office's commitment to justice. According to a social media post by the Collin County DA's office, guest speakers from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), The Turning Point, and The Family Place shared their "powerful insights" on the ongoing support for victims within the community.
The highlight of the event was the presentation of the SuperSleuth Award by District Attorney Greg Willis. The accolade went to five detectives whose work stood out in solving cases and securing justice for victims. This year's luncheon also marked the introduction of the 'Shield of Valor', a fresh commendation for remarkable bravery that prevents further tragedy. The Collin County Criminal District Attorney's Office honored the commitment and hard work of all those associated with helping to make the luncheon an impactful occasion.
This luncheon represents an important facet of community engagement where the efforts of individuals who strive to protect and seek justice for crime victims are recognized and appreciated. "DA Greg Willis presented the SuperSleuth Award to just five detectives across Collin County—honoring their exceptional dedication to solving cases and securing justice for victims," specified the DA's office post. Additionally, the Shield of Valor serves as a strong testament to the courage displayed in the line of duty by law enforcement personnel.
