VICTIM NOTIFICATION
The Tennessee Statewide Automated Victim Information and Notification
Program (SAVIN) allows crime victims in participating counties to obtain
timely and reliable information about an offender's custody status 24
hours
a day by telephone, through the internet, or by e-mail. Users can simply
call a toll free number or go on-line to access the information. The
service
is available in English and Spanish. A citizen who has been victimized
by
someone housed at the Rhea County Jail can call 1-888-868-4631 or
tty/tdd
1-866-847-1298 to have their information recorded with the Victim
Notifcation Hotline. When that inmate is released or transferred to
another
facility, the victim will be notified by the computer system in an
effort to
give them advance warning that the inmate is no longer housed at the
Rhea
County Jail. |
