Stated view that Congress intended to protect crime victims throughout the criminal justice process from investigative phases to conclusion.
This document is a page from a legal article (Page 2 of 31) discussing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and whether victim rights apply before formal charges are filed. It highlights a conflict between a 2010 DOJ OLC opinion, which argued rights do not attach pre-charging, and Senator Jon Kyl, who argued they do. The text specifically uses the Jeffrey Epstein sex abuse case in Florida as a concrete example of the controversy, noting that victims argued they should have been consulted regarding his non-prosecution agreement.
