This document is a page from a legal journal article (Journal of Criminal Law & Criminology) likely submitted as evidence to the House Oversight Committee. It critiques the Office of Legal Counsel's (OLC) interpretation of the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), arguing that the OLC ignored Senator Kyl's intent that victim rights apply before charges are filed. The text specifically cites the 'Epstein case' as a notable example where the OLC's interpretation allowed a non-prosecution agreement to nullify victims' rights to be heard.
