#294: Renee Williams Interview - Part 1

Real Crime Profile / Wondery
About this episode

This week we sit down with Jim’s friend and colleague Renee Williams who is Executive Director of the National Center for the Victims of Crime in Washington D.C.. Renee explains how the center was founded by victims of crime, namely Alex and Ala Auersperg, children of Sunny Von Bulow, who’s husband Klaus Von Bulow was convicted of her attempted murder — a conviction reversed on appeal. Renee discusses the difficulties in getting victims the help they need and deserve.
