Summary

This document is a page from a legal article (Journal of Criminal Law & Criminology) arguing that the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) applies to the pre-charging phase of criminal investigations. It criticizes the Department of Justice's restrictive interpretation of the law and cites various state statutes (Illinois, Iowa, Michigan) as evidence of a legal trend toward early victim notification. The document bears the name of attorney David Schoen and a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp, suggesting it was used as evidence or legal argument in a congressional investigation, likely regarding the handling of the Epstein case and the failure to notify victims.
