Services this Division Provides
The Violent Crimes Division in the Office of the Attorney General prosecutes primarily violent crimes cases in circuit courts throughout the State of Alabama. Generally, the division prosecutes violent crimes when local authorities, district attorneys, or law enforcement request assistance, have conflicts, or do not have the resources to prosecute lengthy, complex, or technical litigation. Such cases are high profile and sensitive cases that require tremendous resources and expertise not available to most local district attorneys. The Violent Crimes Division seeks to work on the most challenging cases that have real legal significance. As a result, this division handles many capital murder cases at the trial level.
