It details the failure of the 1990 Victims' Rights and Restitution Act, attributing its ineffectiveness to poor codification (Title 42 vs Title 18) and its omission from West Publishing's legal guides, citing the Oklahoma City bombing case as a key example.

Legal brief / congressional submission (excerpt from law review article)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017622.jpg

This document is page 19 of a legal text (likely a law review article or legal memorandum by David Schoen) produced to the House Oversight Committee. It critiques an Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) memo, arguing that the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) should apply before criminal charges are filed to prevent 'secondary victimization.' The text specifically cites the 'Epstein case' (Does v. United States, S.D. Fla. 2011) as a legal precedent where the court ruled that the CVRA contemplates pre-charge application.

2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017620.jpg

This document is a page from a legal journal article (Journal of Criminal Law & Criminology) likely submitted as evidence to the House Oversight Committee.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017618.jpg

This document is a page from a legal article (104 J. Crim. L. & Criminology) submitted to the House Oversight Committee, likely by attorney David Schoen. It presents a legal argument criticizing the Office of Legal Counsel's (OLC) memorandum for interpreting the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) too narrowly, specifically arguing that victim rights should extend to the pre-charging phase. The text cites various statutes (VRRA) and case law to support the claim that victims have rights to protection and conference with the government before formal charges are filed.

Legal/academic document (likely a law journal article submitted as evidence)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017616.jpg

This document is a page from a legal filing authored by David Schoen (likely representing victims in the Epstein case), produced to the House Oversight Committee. It presents a legal argument contrasting the Victims' Rights and Restitution Act (VRRA) with the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), arguing that the Justice Department is obligated to recognize and inform victims as soon as an investigation opens, not just after formal charges are filed. It criticizes a 2011 Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) memorandum that attempted to limit these protections for victims of uncharged conduct.

Legal brief / memorandum (house oversight production)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_017611.jpg

This document is an excerpt from a legal journal article discussing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), specifically arguing that victim rights should apply before formal charges are filed. It uses the Jeffrey Epstein case as a primary example of failure in the system, noting that federal prosecutors negotiated a secret non-prosecution agreement with Epstein that barred federal charges for sex offenses against dozens of victims without informing them. The text highlights the outrage of victims 'Jane Doe Number One' and 'Jane Doe Number Two' upon discovering their rights to object had been bargained away secretly.
