CRJ 615 - Assignment 3 Holistic Victim Restitution Plan Outline Terrence Jones Ashford University CRJ 615: Victimology Instructor: Brett Bauman August 4, 2020 Holistic Victim Restitution Plan Outline Introduction The intimate partner abuse and the residual effects of victimization can be persecuted using restorative justice. In this process, the victim and the perpetrator meet in person to discuss the consequences of the committed crime and to develop a restitution plan. Restitution is an “activity of restoration of anything to its rightful owner” (Doerner & Lab, 2012). This paper aims to provide an outline for a holistic victim restitution plan. The paper focuses on the ways to address victim needs, the rise of victimology, the evaluation of empirical data regarding crime victims, the discussion on the victim’s contribution to crime, a critique on the response of the criminal justice system’s to victimization, and a holistic plan for victim restitution. Thesis Statement Restorative justice for intimate partner abuse and residual effects of victimization is an efficient replacement for prosecution. Ways to address the need of Victims Victims need enough time and support to overcome the experienced trauma. The ways in which victim needs can be addressed include providing safety to the victim, providing access to the justice system process along with necessary information, providing continuous support, and freedom of speech. The victims “should get protection from perpetrators and re-victimization” (Wolhuter, Obey, and Denham (2009). The “victim should have the ability to participate in the justice system proceedings and obtain information and services, regardless of personage or family conditions” (Wolhuter, Obey & Denham, 2009). The victim must also have provision to information of the justice system processes as oral and written summaries. The victim must be provided with provisions of support, i.e., access to services for healing the traumatic experience, and harm caused during the same. The support must be consistent and continued throughout the justice system process to ensure complete trauma recovery. The victim must be encouraged to use their freedom of speech during the justice system process.
