Most people don’t really understand victims’ rights. Here’s my effort to show you the numbers behind the issue. Victims’ rights truly deserve more attention than they get. The criminal system often loses track of the people most affected by its outcomes, and victims can get lost in the process.
It may sound strange coming from someone who practices criminal defense, but victims’ rights are important. We need to bring humanity into criminal justice and find ways to help crime victims recover.
Cannon Law presents the infographic: Victims’ Rights By the Numbers. It highlights the stark contrast between how the legal system treats those accused of crimes versus those who suffer from them. It also exposes gaps in state protections, the low conviction rate for rape cases, and the limited scope of victim compensation programs.
