Summary
The bill updates Rhode Island’s Criminal Injuries Compensation program, allowing stalking victims to receive funds for moving or home modifications and eliminating larceny and an outdated “abominable and detestable” crime from the list of compensable offenses. It also clarifies how medical, psychiatric, and dependent losses are paid to victims and their families. The changes aim to better support victims of violent crimes.
