Summary
This document is a page from a 2007 Utah Law Review article discussing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and proposed amendments to legal rules regarding a victim's right to be heard in court proceedings. It specifically critiques the 'Advisory Committee' for having too narrow a scope for when victims can be heard (bail, plea, sentencing) versus a broader approach advocated by the author (likely Paul Cassell). The document was produced by attorney David Schoen (who represented Jeffrey Epstein) to the House Oversight Committee, likely as part of research or evidence regarding the violation of victims' rights in the Epstein case.

Quote #2
"But denying victims a chance to be heard at other hearings where their rights are implicated is such an obvious violation of fundamental notions of fairness... that one should be reluctant to ascribe that position to the Advisory Committee."Source
