Has there been a change in the number of state laws and programs designed to assist victims?Has the treatment of victims of crime in America by the criminal justice system been a nation disgrace?I don't know that the criminal justice system itself is abusive. It is, and should be, unacceptable that gangs and violence are allowed to run the lives of prisoners however. That should be fixed.

Victims are treated decent but there will always need to be improvement.
But I always say it's better for 10 guilty people to go free than for 1 person to go to jail for a crime they didn't commit.
It's a necessary evil.

Actually, MN has victim-witness programs that are part of the county attorneys' offices. The people who work in these programs are generally very good at helping victims through the court system and providing support. There are also many local, community-based non-profits that will assist and support crime victims.
victims have no claims in a criminal justice system.
it's the people vs. the defendant, not the victim.
if the victim demands %26quot;better treatment%26quot; and money, send them to civil court, where they belong.
No, it has not been a nation disgrace, but it is a national disgrace.
