A 20-year-old girl accuses her ex-boyfriend of raping her in a drunken rage. However, the prosecutor states that although he believes her story, there is simply not enough evidence to take the accused to trial and have a jury find him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

• The options available to the victim in the civil court.
• How victim advocacy programs work.
• Civil litigations for providing redress to victims.

• Define and explain the type of crime(s) committed.
• What is the need for creating a constitutional amendment that assures a certain level of victims' rights in all courts? In this scenario, were the rights of the victim violated?
• Do we need to create an amendment to protect victims in this situation or are the victim's rights already protected?
• What are some of the rights that could be guaranteed to the victim in this case?
• How would these rights affect or conflict with the rights of offenders in the system?
• What are the psychological and financial impacts for victims in this type of situation?
