1 this particular issue, even though it's more than a decade old
2 and, yet, we can see today that these problems recur in many
3 other cases. Your remarks today, I think, should be published

11 treated with fairness, dignity and respect.

13 appropriate action here. Unfortunately, it seems like there

18 case, it's been your decision to allow these victims to be
19 heard this morning, and I encourage you to publish your
20 decision and to encourage other judges to follow what is
21 clearly a model for crime victims rights and is clearly an
22 example that should be followed in other cases down the road.
23 THE COURT: Thank you very much. I appreciate your
24 being here. I had no idea that you would be here when I wrote
25 the remarks, but it was clear from the literature that you are
