Victim notification helps Louisville family heal and save lives
Mary Byron’s death sparked the Victim Information and Notification Everyday system, or VINE, now in 25 states and 300 communities. The Louisville project began in 1994 after her mother Pat Byron and two engineers built a $55,000 automated system that dials victims when an inmate’s status changes. The service fuels calls to about 30,000 victims daily, offering updates like next court dates and bail changes, giving peace of mind and safer lives for families across North America.
