Doe have greatly affected the victim’s life. Since he committed this crime, she has
been unable to sleep at night. She is constantly afraid that someone will break into
her home and injure her again. She is no longer able to trust people like she did
before. Her children are also afraid. They do not want to go out in the yard to play
because they fear that Mr. Doe or someone will try to hurt them. The used to play
with other children in the neighbourhood, but now will not even go to the bus stop
without their mother. Mr. Doe's crime has also had a deep financial impact on the
victim’s family. As they do not have insurance, they have been unable to replace
the items broken when he broke into their home. Although Crime Victims
Compensation has been covering our medical bills, the healing process is taking a
long time. She had to miss six weeks of work, using all of her sick and vacation
leave. Prior to this incident, she had rarely missed a day at work. People should not
be able to commit crimes like this and get away with it. The emotional and
financial impact will be felt for years to come. Identify the document that will
contain information such as is provided above and provide a critical discussion
thereof.
The document described in the scenario is a Victim Impact Statement (VIS). A
Victim Impact Statement is a written or oral account provided by the victim or
their family members during the sentencing phase of a criminal trial. It allows the
victim to express how the crime has affected their life emotionally, physically, and
financially. The statement is intended to inform the judge and provide a fuller
picture of the consequences of the crime beyond the legal facts presented during
the trial.
