Victims of Birmingham Crime

About Me

This space has been created to provide a place where Birmingham locals who have been affected by the city's crime rate can find help and comraderie in coping with their experience. It is also intended to help Birmingham residents, as well as visitors, become more aware of what is going on in our city politically, socially, and culturally. If you have experienced an incident of personal or property crime, tell us your story. If you have any stories about police misconduct or a situation that has been mishandled by any city official, let us know. We are hoping that we can eventually use information gathered on this site to effect positive change in the city of Birmingham. We also hope to be able to provide our readers with helpful links, stories, and information for coping with a crisis as well as for general civic awareness. Thank you for your participation in this grassroots effort to help our city live up to its potential. If you are viewing this page and are not a member of myspace but would like to contact us, we can be contacted through [email protected].
