Another facet of sentencing that is usually forgotten is the victim. Most of the components of the criminal justice system focus of the police/district attorney office following the rules to ensure that the defendant (person arrested) rights are not violated. Everyone forgets the victim. The person whose rights were already violated by the defendant.
There are many different types of victim advocacy groups/ victim rights movements across the United States. (name a few) What is the mission of these groups? What are they trying to accomplish? Do you are or disagree with their tactics?
Which amendment(s) would be utilized to protect the victims?
