An 8 page discussion of the dilemma which exists between criminal and victim rights. Notes the recent phenomenon of criminals profiting from their crimes after their conviction and imprisonment by making book and movie deals or even producing art or song lyrics. The more gruesome and famous the crime the higher the potential profit. Although laws have been implemented at the state level across the nation to prevent a criminal prospering at the expense of his or her victims, these laws have been recently overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. We are left, therefore, not with the question of the legality of such profit but with the ethics of such profit. Suggests that victim's rights can be protected, and indeed victim and criminal justice system both recompensed, with legislation which allows criminals to maintain only a small percentage of their profit from such deals and diverting the rest to the victims and the criminal justice system. This would provide incentive to the criminals but at the same time generate much needed revenue for victim and state alike. Bibliography list 4 sources.
