Notes:
"Major Crimes" are assigned at the pleasure of the Commonwealth's Attorney. Major Crimes are cases that in the opinion of the Commonwealth's Attorney must be assigned to an experienced prosecutor due to extreme complexity, gravity or the novelty of issues presented. All homicides are considered Major Crimes.
"Special Victim Crimes" are assigned at the pleasure of the SVU Supervisor. Special Victims crimes include Child Sexual Assault, Adult Sexual Assault, Child Abuse and Child Neglect cases.
"Violent & Vice Crimes" are assigned at the pleasure of the VCU Supervisor. Violent crimes include robbery, malicious wounding, malicious shooting at occupied building or vehicles and non-domestic related abductions.
"White Collar" crimes include fraud, prescription fraud, false pretense, embezzlement, forgery and uttering and credit card offenses. White Collar crimes are assigned at the pleasure of the WFU Supervisor. However, the White Collar Supervisor maintains primary responsibility for all white collar cases and is the contact person for CIS and VWAP on these matters.
Other felony cases including all felony possession of narcotics cases, felony larcenies, felony worthless check, felony destruction of property, felony eluding, and other felony offenses not otherwise designated are assigned by the Chief Deputy to assistants in rotation.
Issues or questions related to narcotics cases should be directed to the VCU Supervisor.
