  • Resumen

  • Most crime victims know they have the right to give a victim impact statement (VIS) before sentencing and at parole board hearings. But most people do not realize that judges seldom use our input. That's because we don't stick to our task: giving a rationale for our sentence recommendation.

    It's a relatively recent privilege to have our say in court. It took federal legislation to make it a reality (the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982). Not everyone is on board. The ACLU has consistently opposed this right. They believe it undermines due process.

    This episode provides a quick overview of the dos and don't behind giving a victim impact statement.
