ReportIt Citizen Property Inventory System
This secure online system allows everyone, everywhere to catalog information about their personal property; such as collectibles, jewelry, electronics, machinery, lawn equipment and much more. ReportIt will allow you to put whatever information you think is important including serial numbers, owner applied numbers, photos, and scans of receipts for your valuables that will help Law Enforcement to recover your lost or stolen property quickly.
Why is this important?
ReportIt has become accessible to you because your local Law Enforcement wants you to be prepared in the event of theft or loss. If valuable items were to ever be stolen or lost, you can easily print out the information you provided in ReportIt and provide it to your local Law Enforcement Agency for easy identification of the stolen or lost property and help with faster recovery of your property.

The Victim/Witness Assistance Program was developed to assist those who find themselves involved in the criminal justice system as crime victims or witnesses for the counties of King and Queen and King William. This program, operated by the Offices of the Sheriffs and Offices of the Commonwealth Attorneys, helps ensure that fair and compassionate treatment is given to all victims and witnesses. Our goal is to reduce confusion by explaining the criminal justice process while providing information about services that are available.
The legal process can be long and complicated. The Victim/Witness Assistance Program is available to make sure the needs of victims and witnesses are met.
Crime Victim & Witness Rights Act
As a victim or witness of crime, you have certain rights under Virginia’s Crime Victim and Witness Rights Act. There are specific steps you may need to take to receive these rights.

Tips on Testifying
–Be Prepared. Try to recall what happened and picture the scene and objects there. Don’t try to memorize your testimony; simply be prepared to tell what happened in your own words.
–Be Courteous. Try to remain calm and do not lose your temper. Your behavior on the witness stand will affect how your credibility is viewed.
–Tell the Truth. Don’t try to figure out if your answer will hurt or help the case. Just answer truthfully and to the best of your knowledge. If you don’t know the answer, then say you don’t know.
–Speak Clearly and Loudly. Everyone must be able to hear and understand your testimony. An inaudible voice detracts from your testimony and may make the court think that you are not certain of what you are saying.
–Answer Only the Questions Asked of You. If you do not understand a question, ask that it be explained. It is the duty of the attorney to make the question clear. Do not volunteer information and remember to stop immediately if the judge interrupts or an attorney objects to a question.
–Be Prepared to Wait. The Commonwealth Attorney’s Office has significantly reduced the amount of time a witness spends in court. However, occasionally a witness may be requested to remain nearby for a period of time
