ELLSWORTH – Nancy Hunt, victim witness advocate for the Hancock County District Attorney’s Office, was one of 10 finalists chosen nationally to go to Washington, D.C., to share her promise Thursday to crime victims at a national candlelight service.

In honor of National Crime Victims Rights Week, April 7-11, professionals and volunteers who assist crime victims were invited to submit statements to the Office for Victims of Crime in Washington, D.C.

Hunt submitted the following statement: “My promise, though small, is that I will never lose my compassion for the people I help. Also, I will continue with education and learning about resources to better assist each person I have the honor of working with.”

Hunt has worked in the Hancock County District Attorney’s Office for two years and specializes in the area of domestic abuse.
