This document outlines victim's rights under the CVRA and VRRA, including amendments made in 2015. It details the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel's (OLC) 2005 informal guidance on the definition of a 'crime victim' in the context of the Epstein investigation, stating that victim status commences with a complaint and ends if no indictment or prosecution occurs. The guidance was summarized in a 2010 Memorandum Opinion by Deputy Assistant Attorney General John E. Bies.
