Victims Bill of Rights  

Definición

  • Between 1980 and 2000, every U.S. state enacted a victims' bill of rights, either as an amendment to its state constitution or as a statute designed to promote and preserve the rights of victims of crime in criminal prosecutions. By any fair measure, these laws indicated a strong national consensus that a new emphasis was needed on the rights of victims in the criminal justice process.
