Title 18 of the United States Code

Under the Victim Rights and Restitution Act, VRRA, U.S. Code 34, Section 20141, crime victims were entitled to receive information as to the status of the criminal investigation, to be informed of the place where they may receive medical and social services, to be informed of public and private programs available for counseling and other support services, and to receive reasonable protection and from a suspected offender and persons acting in concert with or at the behest of the suspected offender.

Further, under the Crime Victims Rights Act, CVRA, of 2004, U.S. Code 18, Section 3771, crime victims are accorded certain rights, such as the right to be reasonably protected from the accused, to accurate and timely notice of any public court proceeding, to be treated with fairness and with a respect for the victim's dignity and privacy, to be timely informed of any plea bargain or deferred prosecution agreement, and to be informed of the rights and services under the VRRA.

The FBI and federal prosecutors were supposedly trained regarding their statutory victim witness responsibilities.

The 1995 Attorney General Guidelines set forth various services for victims and witnesses during the federal criminal justice process, including information, referral, and protection from intimidation and harassment.

Four United States statutes govern the conduct at issue if it involves United States interests, and Norwegian criminal law governs the Norwegian incidents.

The Economic Espionage Act at 18 U.S.C.

Section 1831, enacted October 11, 1996, amended January 14, 2013, reaches theft or unauthorized transmission of a trade secret to benefit a foreign government.

Individuals face a fine up to $5 million and imprisonment up to 15 years.

Organizations face a fine up to the greater of $10 million or three times the value of the secret.

People are confused.

They don't know the difference between a public law and the United States Criminal Code, Title 18.

Over and over again, this ignorance keeps popping up, and I just want to address it and get it out of the way.

Our next caller, Dave, is Don in Arizona.

And we're also waiting to hear from the judge.

the defendant's attorney to see if they're going to offer any kind of settlement because I believe they do not want us to get discovery because it's gonna show certain individuals and organizations that pretty much told the Douglas County Sheriff's Office to violate civil rights and did you know that under US Code Title 18 sections 241 and 242 deprivation of rights under color of the law and conspiracy against rights are serious federal felonies And I can assure you they don't want us to get discovery because pretty soon, if they don't make a settlement of some sort, this will go to trial and we will find out the people or organizations behind silencing Americans' First Amendment rights.

Well, I love that you're doing that.

So just out of curiosity, because when it comes to things like case law and setting precedent, is this a case where dependent upon the outcome of it, it could have implications for, I guess, state or local law? If not, could this get pushed up to a higher court? Because, you know, we're facing this across kind of all forms and functions.

I don't look fat, but I've already gotten fat enough that even I can't even get in my uniform.

But there's a safeguard there that says that if a guy like me assembled even my buddies and brothers in the military and we went down to the polls and we were standing in our uniform, there's actually a federal code there as well, a Title 18 code.

It says that we can't do that.

So it has to be official duty.
