Victimology is complicated. Now that you are in Advanced Victimology- let′s really dig down and discuss what ″victimization″ means….the OJ Simpson case is a case that highlights some of the concepts in Chapter 7. I had the chance when I was with the United States Attorney′s Office for the Northern District of New York to invite in Ron Goldman′s sister, Kim to speak with our staff when we had our annual training in Lake Placid. She spoke to us about her brother′s death and the feeling of frustration years later as well as the difference between the criminal and civil cases. I have attached two documentaries for your to watch in this week′s course module – I would ask that you watch these before writing your paper this week. Kim has fueled her grief with advocacy efforts and below I shared a featured article about Kim′s work in the world of victim advocacy. Many of you may remember OJ Simpson as it relates to sports but this case motivated a radical change in how we treat victims as a nation. As a result, we see advocate′s like Kim fighting for the right to be heard. She shared with me that the Judge in the criminal case would not even allow her to wear a pin that featured a picture of her brother during the trial. She was told that if she cried and showed any emotion she would be asked to leave the courtroom. We now have federal legislation that gives victims rights in the 2000 Crime Victims Rights Act which protects other victims from ever being treated that way. I would ask that you write a min of an 800-word post with a min of FOUR references that address this case. Provide an overview and timeline and discuss the criminal and civil cases. Then WITHOUT stating opinions, draw factual conclusions about the difference between the two, identify the victims in each and also discuss the complications around victim advocacy in this case. Describe justice specifically to the OJ Simpson case and was it served? Why or why not? Be detailed. See uploaded file for the material you must watch and read, and reference
