Jon Krakauer Quotes

After A Victim Has Reported A Crime To The Police, Many People Believe That The Decision Whether Or Not To Charge The Suspect With A Crime, And Then Prosecute The Suspect, Is The Prerogative Of The Victim. News Media Often Contribute To This Misconception In Stories About Rape Victims By Reporting That A Victim 'declined To Press Charges.' In Fact, The Criminal Justice System Gives Victims No Direct Say In The Matter. It's The Police, For The Most Part, Who Decide Whether A Suspect Should Be Arrested, And Prosecutors Who Ultimately Determine Whether A Conviction Should Be Pursued.
