NSW: Victims abandon support group saying "govt has hijacked it"
The head of the New South Wales Homicide Victims Support Group has denied claims bysome crime victims that the network has become more about politics than meeting theirneeds.
A Sun-Herald investigation has found that some relatives of murder victims have turnedtheir backs on the government-sponsored charity which was designed to help them rebuildtheir lives.
Some have walked away, citing differences with the network's executive director MARTHAJABOUR who's paid $130,000 a year to run the group.
She's told the paper while most of the group's 1,700 members are happy with the organisation,some aren't.
An incident which angered some members occurred at the group's annual fundraising event,in which Ms JABOUR won and kept the major prize -- a brand new $39,000 Mini Cooper.
Ms JABOUR's told the paper she won the prize fair and square.
