Document Summary

This document is the first page of a 2014 law review article titled 'Crime Victims' Rights During Criminal Investigations?' published in The Journal of Criminal Law & Criminology. Co-authored by Bradley J. Edwards (a prominent attorney for Epstein victims), Paul Cassell, and Nathanael Mitchell, the article argues that the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) should apply during the investigation phase, contrary to a DOJ memorandum. The text alludes to a 'notorious federal sex abuse case' (referencing the Epstein case) where victims were deprived of rights before charges were filed.
