This document is page 73 of a legal publication (dated 2014) discussing the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA). It argues that victims have rights before charges are filed, citing the case 'In re Dean' and the BP Products explosion case in Texas as precedent for victims' rights to confer with the government regarding plea deals. While Jeffrey Epstein is not named on this page, the text cites Paul G. Cassell (a lawyer for Epstein's victims) multiple times, and the legal arguments regarding plea deals made without victim consultation mirror the controversy surrounding Epstein's 2008 Non-Prosecution Agreement.
