Section 15-23-2 Legislative findings, etc. The Legislature hereby finds, determines and declares
that victims of violent crime are often reduced to bereft and destitute circumstances as a
result of the criminal acts perpetrated against them, that the financial or economic resources

Section 11-5-30 Legislative findings; construction. (a) The Legislature hereby finds, determines,
and declares all of the following: (1) An unattended and sudden death is one of society's
most tragic events and should receive the appropriate caring, competent, and thorough attention
