What do I do if I have been the victim of a crime?

Contact the police immediately. The sooner the police can begin their investigation and start gathering evidence, the greater the chance the crime will be solved and the offender will be brought to justice. The Henry County State's Attorney's Office will not consider a case for prosecution unless it has been reported to and investigated by the police.

You may also file a complaint (PDF) directly with the SAO office. Please mail the completed form to the Henry County State's Attorney office at 307 W Center Street, Cambridge, IL, 61238 and you will be contacted as soon as your complaint has been reviewed.
