The document appears to be a series of emails between two individuals discussing the topic of whether former President Bill Clinton was present at a particular location and event described by one party as an "orgie". The second person suggests that the claim is likely false, and they also mention that the story has been picked up from unverified sources in civil court documents, which were then reported in UK tabloids due to no libel rules on U.S. court papers. They suggest that it might be difficult to get mainstream media outlets like The New York Times or Wall Street Journal to report on this story without reliable on-the-record sources, but they could try pitching it to Politico.

The article discusses whether crime victims should have rights during criminal investigations, focusing on the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) and its applicability before criminal charges are filed. The authors argue that if victims do not have rights during investigations, many will never receive any protection or support from the legal system. They also address a recent memorandum by the Justice Department contending that the CVRA does not extend rights to crime victims until formal charges are filed. The article is published in the Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology, with authors Paul G. Cassell, Nathanael J. Mitchell, and Bradley J. Edwards.
