Victims' Rights Acts are laws designed to ensure that individuals who have suffered harm from criminal activities receive specific rights and protections. These rights often include the right to be informed about court proceedings, the right to participate in the legal process, and the right to receive restitution for their losses. The goal is to empower victims and provide them with a voice in the justice system. In the United States, many states have enacted their own versions of the Victims' Rights Act, while the federal government has also established laws to protect victims. These acts aim to create a more supportive environment for victims, acknowledging their experiences and promoting their dignity throughout the legal process.
