PLAINTIFF CLASS COMPLAINT ¶ 42

"Despite discovering an estimated stash of thousands of illicit media files containing identifiable minors, federal prosecutors under the Trump administration DOJ notified fewer than two dozen individuals, failing to satisfy the mandatory victim notification obligations imposed by the Crime Victims' Rights Act."

18 U.S.C. § 3771(a)(2) STATUTORY TEXT

"A crime victim has the following rights: (2) The right to reasonable, accurate, and timely notice of any public court proceeding, or any parole proceeding, involving the crime or of any release or escape of the accused."
