Law enforcement officials, elected representatives and family and friends of crime victims gathered in St. Patrick Church in Chatham Borough Monday to honor victims of crimes from Morris County.
Morris County Prosecutor Robert Bianchi said each year the Prosecutor’s Office chooses one victim, usually a homocide victim from a prominent trial case the year before, to honor in their Recognition and Remembrance Ceremony held each April during Crime Victims’ Rights Week.
This year, the Prosecutor’s Office chose to honor the Rev. Edward Hinds, the former pastor of St. Patrick Church. Hinds, who was known to his congregation as “Father Ed,” was stabbed 44 times by Jose Feliciano, the church custodian.
