Marsy's Law requires that officers provide all victims and their families the information in the form of a card or by other means intended to advise the victim of their rights.

• A. A card or other means intended to advise rights
• B. Only verbally
• C. As part of the police report
• D. By publishing it publicly

Answer: (A)

Marsy's Law emphasizes giving victims clear, enduring notice of their rights in a tangible format. Providing the information in writing—such as a card or another written form—ensures the victim has a reliable reference they can review and keep. Verbal explanations alone can be forgotten or misunderstood, and simply including rights in a police report doesn’t guarantee the victim receives or retains the information. Publishing it publicly would also violate privacy. A written notice, delivered in a card or similar means, best meets the purpose of informing victims and their families about their rights.
