I worked with adolescent offenders, and the victims' rights advocates' jobs often appeared to be convincing the victims that the offenders (aka kids) were intrinsically evil & should be taken from society rather than including the victims in the conversation about how to fix what was harmed/broken.

one thing I learned after becoming a victim is that so many victim's rights groups are focused on more punitive punishments for criminals instead of helping victims
