Panel to describe effects of DUI accidents

By Cynthia Grau/WJEZ News

A Victim Impact Panel is coming to Pontiac for offenders convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

This panel is a one-time non-confrontational presentation given by victims of DUI crashes who speak about the impact the crash has had on their lives.

All offenders convicted of DUI are required to attend the panel as part of their sentence. These panels will take place August 6 and December 3 at 5 p.m. at the Law and Justice Center.

This event is sponsored by Livingston County Probation and Court Services. For more information, contact Ron Baker at 815-842-9379.
