FACTSHEET:
Constitutional Rights for Crime Victims
The rights of crime victims have only begun to be recognized in the law during the last two decades. Prior to that, crime victims had no rights during the criminal justice process. They did not have to be informed of court proceedings or of the arrest or release of the defendant, they had no right to be present during the trial or other proceedings, and they had no right to make a statement to the court at sentencing or at other hearings.
