This document is a page from a legal text (likely a law journal or brief submitted by David Schoen) analyzing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA). It argues against the Office of Legal Counsel's (OLC) narrow interpretation that victims' rights only attach after charges are filed, citing a 2011 letter from Senator Jon Kyl to Attorney General Eric Holder where Kyl clarifies that rights were intended to exist pre-indictment. The text criticizes the OLC for deceptively quoting legislative history to support their position.
