Summary
This document is page 98 of a legal text or law review article (Vol. 104) authored by 'Cassell et al.' (likely Paul Cassell). It discusses the statutory rights of crime victims across various U.S. states, specifically focusing on the requirement for prosecutors to confer with victims regarding plea negotiations and charging decisions. The text cites various state statutes (Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana) and legal studies to argue that victims' rights often attach prior to the formal filing of charges, a relevant legal argument in the context of the Epstein non-prosecution agreement controversy.
