Crime Control Act of 1990

The Victims' Rights and Restitution Act of 1990 aims to protect crime victims by providing them with rights and services during the criminal justice process. This act ensures that victims are treated with fairness and respect, protected from offenders, notified of court proceedings, and provided with restitution and information about offender conviction and release. The document also addresses child abuse cases, mandatory detention for serious crimes, and enhancements to penalties for certain drug offenses. It further amends various laws related to crime control, including the Controlled Substances Act and the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, to strengthen drug-free school zones, enhance sentencing provisions, and improve correctional options.
