Victim impact statements are a very important aspect of the healing that has to take place subsequent to the commission of a crime and subsequent to the often arduous process that victims experience in the court. That includes the delay, the appeal, and often the very rigorous cross-examination and rigorous examination of circumstance that occurs in a courtroom.
Les déclarations des victimes constituent une partie importante du processus de guérison qui suit nécessairement un crime et une poursuite souvent difficile devant les tribunaux, c'est-à-dire le délai, l'appel et souvent le contre-interrogatoire et l'examen approfondi des circonstances effectués au tribunal.
