Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2, through their counsel, provide notice of newly-available supplemental authority supporting their motion for finding violations of the Crime Victims Rights Act (CVRA). The notice includes a letter from Senator Jon Kyl, co-sponsor of the CVRA, to Attorney General Eric Holder, asserting that the CVRA was intended to protect crime victims during the investigative phase of a criminal case. The letter was inserted into the Congressional Record and supports the victims' position against the Government's interpretation that CVRA rights apply only after formal charges are filed.
