CRIME VICTIMS WITH DISABILITIES AWARENESS

Stat. 1739, provided that:

"SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

"This Act may be cited as the 'Crime Victims With Disabilities

Awareness Act'.

"SEC. 2. FINDINGS; PURPOSES.

"(a) Findings. - Congress finds that -

"(1) although research conducted abroad demonstrates that

individuals with developmental disabilities are at a 4 to 10

times higher risk of becoming crime victims than those without

disabilities, there have been no significant studies on this

subject conducted in the United States;

"(2) in fact, the National Crime Victim's Survey, conducted

annually by the Bureau of Justice Statistics of the Department of

Justice, does not specifically collect data relating to crimes

against individuals with developmental disabilities;

"(3) studies in Canada, Australia, and Great Britain

consistently show that victims with developmental disabilities

suffer repeated victimization because so few of the crimes

against them are reported, and even when they are, there is

sometimes a reluctance by police, prosecutors, and judges to rely

on the testimony of a disabled individual, making individuals

with developmental disabilities a target for criminal predators;

"(4) research in the United States needs to be done to -

"(A) understand the nature and extent of crimes against

individuals with developmental disabilities;

"(B) describe the manner in which the justice system responds

to crimes against individuals with developmental disabilities;

and

"(C) identify programs, policies, or laws that hold promises

for making the justice system more responsive to crimes against

individuals with developmental disabilities; and

"(5) the National Academy of Science Committee on Law and

Justice of the National Research Council is a premier research

institution with unique experience in developing seminal,

multidisciplinary studies to establish a strong research base

from which to make public policy.

"(b) Purposes. - The purposes of this Act are -

"(1) to increase public awareness of the plight of victims of

crime who are individuals with developmental disabilities;

"(2) to collect data to measure the extent of the problem of

crimes against individuals with developmental disabilities; and

"(3) to develop a basis to find new strategies to address the

safety and justice needs of victims of crime who are individuals

with developmental disabilities.

"SEC. 3. DEFINITION OF DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY.

"In this Act, the term 'developmental disability' has the meaning

given the term in section 102 of the Developmental Disabilities

Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 [42 U.S.C. 15002].

"SEC. 4. STUDY.

"(a) In General. - The Attorney General shall conduct a study to

increase knowledge and information about crimes against individuals

with developmental disabilities that will be useful in developing

new strategies to reduce the incidence of crimes against those

individuals.

"(b) Issues Addressed. - The study conducted under this section

shall address such issues as -

"(1) the nature and extent of crimes against individuals with

developmental disabilities;

"(2) the risk factors associated with victimization of

individuals with developmental disabilities;

"(3) the manner in which the justice system responds to crimes

against individuals with developmental disabilities; and

"(4) the means by which States may establish and maintain a

centralized computer database on the incidence of crimes against

individuals with disabilities within a State.

"(c) National Academy of Sciences. - In carrying out this

section, the Attorney General shall consider contracting with the

Committee on Law and Justice of the National Research Council of

the National Academy of Sciences to provide research for the study

conducted under this section.

"(d) Report. - Not later than 18 months after the date of

enactment of this Act [Oct. 27, 1998], the Attorney General shall

submit to the Committees on the Judiciary of the Senate and the

House of Representatives a report describing the results of the

study conducted under this section.

"SEC. 5. NATIONAL CRIME VICTIM'S SURVEY.

"Not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act,

as part of each National Crime Victim's Survey, the Attorney

General shall include statistics relating to -

"(1) the nature of crimes against individuals with

developmental disabilities; and

"(2) the specific characteristics of the victims of those

Sec. 3760. Purposes

-STATUTE-

(a) In general

The purpose of this subpart is to provide additional Federal

financial assistance to public or private agencies and private

nonprofit organizations for purposes of -

(1) undertaking educational and training programs for -

(A) criminal justice personnel; and

(B) the general public, with respect to the lawful and safe

ownership, storage, carriage, or use of firearms, including the

provision of secure gun storage or safety devices;

(2) providing technical assistance to States and local units of

government;

(3) undertaking projects which are national or

multijurisdictional in scope and which address the purposes

specified in section 3751(b) of this title; and

(4) providing financial assistance to public agencies and

private nonprofit organizations for demonstration programs which,

in view of previous research or experience, are likely to be a

success in more than one jurisdiction.

(b) Grants and contracts

In carrying out this subpart, the Director is authorized to make

grants to, or enter into contracts with non-Federal public or

private agencies, institutions, or organizations or individuals to

carry out any purpose specified in section 3751(b) of this title

and is authorized to make grants to, or enter into contracts with,

those persons and entities to carry out the purposes specified in

subsection (a)(1)(B) of this section in accordance with subsection

all funds awarded under this subpart.

(1) In accordance with this subsection, the Director may make a

grant to, or enter into a contract with, any person or entity

referred to in subsection (b) of this section to provide for a

firearm safety program that, in a manner consistent with subsection

(a)(1)(B) of this section, provides for general public training and

dissemination of information concerning firearm safety, secure gun

storage, and the lawful ownership, carriage, or use of firearms,

including the provision of secure gun storage or safety devices.

(2) Funds made available under a grant under paragraph (1) may

not be used (either directly or by supplanting non-Federal funds)

for advocating or promoting gun control, including making

communications that are intended to directly or indirectly affect

the passage of Federal, State, or local legislation intended to

restrict or control the purchase or use of firearms.

(3) Except as provided in paragraph (4), each firearm safety

program that receives funding under this subsection shall provide

for evaluations that shall be developed pursuant to guidelines that

the Director of the National Institute of Justice of the Department

of Justice, in consultation with the Director of the Bureau of

Justice Assistance and recognized private entities that have

expertise in firearms safety, education and training, shall

establish.

(4) With respect to a firearm safety program that receives

funding under this section, the Director may waive the evaluation

requirement described in paragraph (3) if the Director determines

that the program -

(A) is not of a sufficient size to justify an evaluation; or

(B) is designed primarily to provide material resources and

supplies, and that activity would not justify an evaluation.

(d) Limitations as to non-governmental entities

No grants or contracts under subsection (b) of this section may

be made, entered into, or used, directly or indirectly, to provide

any security enhancements or any equipment to any non-governmental

entity that is not engaged in law enforcement or law enforcement

support, criminal or juvenile justice, or delinquency prevention.

serious offenders;

(B) to provide a degree of security and discipline

appropriate for the offender involved;

(including counseling, substance abuse treatment, education,

job training and placement assistance while under correctional

supervision, and linkage to similar outside services), to

increase the success rate of offenders who decide to pursue a

course of lawful and productive conduct after release from

legal restraint;

(D) to reduce criminal recidivism by offenders who receive

punishment through such alternatives;

(E) to reduce the cost of correctional services and

facilities by reducing criminal recidivism; and

under subsection (a)(3) of this section, the Director shall -

(1) consider the overall quality of an applicant's shock

incarceration program, including the existence of substance abuse

treatment, drug testing, counseling literacy education,

vocational education, and job training programs during

incarceration or after release; and

(2) give priority to public agencies that clearly demonstrate

that the capacity of their correctional facilities is inadequate

to accommodate the number of individuals who are convicted of

offenses punishable by a term of imprisonment exceeding 1 year.

The Director shall consult with the Commission on Alternative

Utilization of Military Facilities created by Public Law 100-456 in

order to identify military facilities that may be used as sites for

correctional programs receiving assistance under this subpart.

chapter; or

(3) any application submitted in accordance with the provisions

of this chapter, or the provisions of any other applicable

Federal Act;

longer any such failure to comply, terminate payments to the

recipient under this chapter, reduce payments to the recipient

provided herein. The Bureau of Justice Assistance, the National

Institute of Justice, or the Bureau of Justice Statistics is

administrative review of the denial of such application or

termination of such grant, it is determined that the basis for the

appeal, if substantiated, would not establish a basis for awarding

or continuing of the grant involved. Under such circumstances, a

more detailed statement of reasons for the agency action should be

made available, upon request, to the applicant.

additional information

If the applicant involved is dissatisfied with the findings and

determinations of the Bureau of Justice Assistance, the National

a request may be made for rehearing, under such regulations and

procedure as the Bureau of Justice Assistance, the National

Institute of Justice, or the Bureau of Justice Statistics may

establish, and such applicant shall be afforded an opportunity to

present such additional information as may be deemed appropriate

and pertinent to the matter involved.

jurisdiction to affirm the action of the Office of Justice

Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance, the Bureau of Justice

Statistics, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency

Prevention, or the National Institute of Justice, or to set it

aside, in whole or in part. The judgment of the court shall be

-HEAD-

Sec. 3789d. Prohibition of Federal control over State and local

criminal justice agencies; prohibition of discrimination

-STATUTE-

(a) General rule

Nothing in this chapter or any other Act shall be construed to

authorize any department, agency, officer, or employee of the

United States to exercise any direction, supervision, or control

over any police force or any other criminal justice agency of any

State or any political subdivision thereof.

(b) Racial imbalance requirement restriction

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, nothing contained in

this chapter shall be construed to authorize the National Institute

of Justice, the Bureau of Justice Statistics, or the Law

Enforcement Assistance Administration -

(1) to require, or condition the availability or amount of a

grant upon the adoption by an applicant or grantee under this

chapter of a percentage ratio, quota system, or other program to

achieve racial balance in any criminal justice agency; or

(2) to deny or discontinue a grant because of the refusal of an

applicant or grantee under this chapter to adopt such a ratio,

system, or other program.

and restoration of payments; hearing; civil action by Attorney

General; private action, attorney fees, intervention by Attorney

General

(1) No person in any State shall on the ground of race, color,

religion, national origin, or sex be excluded from participation

in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination

under or denied employment in connection with any programs or

activity funded in whole or in part with funds made available under

this chapter.

(2)(A) Whenever there has been -

(i) receipt of notice of a finding, after notice and

opportunity for a hearing, by a Federal court (other than in an

action brought by the Attorney General) or State court, or by a

Federal or State administrative agency, to the effect that there

has been a pattern or practice of discrimination in violation of

paragraph (1); or

(ii) a determination after an investigation by the Office of

Justice Programs (prior to a hearing under subparagraph (F) but

including an opportunity for the State government or unit of

local government to make a documentary submission regarding the

allegation of discrimination with respect to such program or

activity, with funds made available under this chapter) that a

State government or unit of local government is not in compliance

with paragraph (1);

the Office of Justice Programs shall, within ten days after such

occurrence, notify the chief executive of the affected State, or

the State in which the affected unit of local government is

located, and the chief executive of such unit of local government,

that such program or activity has been so found or determined not

to be in compliance with paragraph (1), and shall request each

chief executive, notified under this subparagraph with respect to

such violation, to secure compliance. For purposes of clause (i) a

finding by a Federal or State administrative agency shall be deemed

rendered after notice and opportunity for a hearing if it is

rendered pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions of

subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5.

(B) In the event the chief executive secures compliance after

notice pursuant to subparagraph (A), the terms and conditions with

which the affected State government or unit of local government

agrees to comply shall be set forth in writing and signed by the

chief executive of the State, by the chief executive of such unit

(in the event of a violation by a unit of local government), and by

the Office of Justice Programs. On or prior to the effective date

of the agreement, the Office of Justice Programs shall send a copy

of the agreement to each complainant, if any, with respect to such

violation. The chief executive of the State, or the chief executive

of the unit (in the event of a violation by a unit of local

government) shall file semiannual reports with the Office of

Justice Programs detailing the steps taken to comply with the

agreement. These reports shall cease to be filed upon the

determination of the Office of Justice Programs that compliance has

been secured, or upon the determination by a Federal or State court

that such State government or local governmental unit is in

compliance with this section. Within fifteen days of receipt of

such reports, the Office of Justice Programs shall send a copy

thereof to each such complainant.

subparagraph (A) -

(i) compliance has not been secured by the chief executive of

that State or the chief executive of that unit of local

government; and

(ii) an administrative law judge has not made a determination

under subparagraph (F) that it is likely the State government or

unit of local government will prevail on the merits; the Office

of Justice Programs shall notify the Attorney General that

compliance has not been secured and caused to have suspended

further payment of any funds under this chapter to that program

or activity. Such suspension shall be limited to the specific

program or activity cited by the Office of Justice Programs in

the notice under subparagraph (A). Such suspension shall be

effective for a period of not more than one hundred and twenty

days, or, if there is a hearing under subparagraph (G), not more

than thirty days after the conclusion of such hearing, unless

there has been an express finding by the Office of Justice

Programs, after notice and opportunity for such a hearing, that

the recipient is not in compliance with paragraph (1).

(D) Payment of the suspended funds shall resume only if -

(i) such State government or unit of local government enters

into a compliance agreement approved by the Office of Justice

Programs and the Attorney General in accordance with subparagraph

(B);

(ii) such State government or unit of local government complies

fully with the final order or judgment of a Federal or State

court, or by a Federal or State administrative agency if that

order or judgment covers all the matters raised by the Office of

Justice Programs in the notice pursuant to subparagraph (A), or

is found to be in compliance with paragraph (1) by such court; or

(iii) after a hearing the Office of Justice Programs pursuant

to subparagraph (F) finds that noncompliance has not been

demonstrated.

(E) Whenever the Attorney General files a civil action alleging a

pattern or practice of discriminatory conduct on the basis of race,

color, religion, national origin, or sex in any program or activity

of a State government or unit of local government which State

government or unit of local government receives funds made

available under this chapter, and the conduct allegedly violates

the provisions of this section and neither party within forty-five

days after such filing has been granted such preliminary relief

with regard to the suspension or payment of funds as may be

otherwise available by law, the Office of Justice Programs shall

cause to have suspended further payment of any funds under this

chapter to that specific program or activity alleged by the

Attorney General to be in violation of the provisions of this

subsection until such time as the court orders resumption of

payment.

(F) Prior to the suspension of funds under subparagraph (C), but

within the ninety-day period after notification under subparagraph

(C), the State government or unit of local government may request

an expedited preliminary hearing on the record in accordance with

section 554 of title 5, in order to determine whether it is likely

that the State government or unit of local government would, at a

full hearing under subparagraph (G), prevail on the merits on the

issue of the alleged noncompliance. A finding under this

subparagraph by the administrative law judge in favor of the State

government or unit of local government shall defer the suspension

of funds under subparagraph (C) pending a finding of noncompliance

at the conclusion of the hearing on the merits under subparagraph

(G).

(G)(i) At any time after notification under subparagraph (A), but

before the conclusion of the one-hundred-and-twenty-day period

referred to in subparagraph (C), a State government or unit of

local government may request a hearing on the record in accordance

with section 554 of title 5, which the Office of Justice Programs

shall initiate within sixty days of such request.

(ii) Within thirty days after the conclusion of the hearing, or,

in the absence of a hearing, at the conclusion of the

one-hundred-and-twenty-day period referred to in subparagraph (C),

the Office of Justice Programs shall make a finding of compliance

or noncompliance. If the Office of Justice Programs makes a finding

of noncompliance, the Office of Justice Programs shall notify the

Attorney General in order that the Attorney General may institute a

civil action under paragraph (3), cause to have terminated the

payment of funds under this chapter, and, if appropriate, seek

repayment of such funds.

(iii) If the Office of Justice Programs makes a finding of

compliance, payment of the suspended funds shall resume as provided

in subparagraph (D).

(H) Any State government or unit of local government aggrieved by

a final determination of the Office of Justice Programs under

subparagraph (G) may appeal such determination as provided in

section 3785 of this title.

(3) Whenever the Attorney General has reason to believe that a

State government or unit of local government has engaged in or is

engaging in a pattern or practice in violation of the provisions of

this section, the Attorney General may bring a civil action in an

appropriate United States district court. Such court may grant as

relief any temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent

injunction, or other order, as necessary or appropriate to insure

the full enjoyment of the rights described in this section,

including the suspension, termination, or repayment of such funds

made available under this chapter as the court may deem

appropriate, or placing any further such funds in escrow pending

the outcome of the litigation.

(4)(A) Whenever a State government or unit of local government,

or any officer or employee thereof acting in an official capacity,

has engaged or is engaging in any act or practice prohibited by

this subsection, a civil action may be instituted after exhaustion

of administrative remedies by the person aggrieved in an

appropriate United States district court or in a State court of

general jurisdiction. Administrative remedies shall be deemed to be

exhausted upon the expiration of sixty days after the date the

administrative complaint was filed with the Office of Justice

Programs or any other administrative enforcement agency, unless

within such period there has been a determination by the Office of

Justice Programs or the agency on the merits of the complaint, in

which case such remedies shall be deemed exhausted at the time the

determination becomes final.

(B) In any civil action brought by a private person to enforce

compliance with any provision of this subsection, the court may

grant to a prevailing plaintiff reasonable attorney fees, unless

the court determines that the lawsuit is frivolous, vexatious,

brought for harassment purposes, or brought principally for the

purpose of gaining attorney fees.

compliance with paragraph (1), the Attorney General, or a specially

designated assistant for or in the name of the United States, may

intervene upon timely application if he certifies that the action

is of general public importance. In such action the United States

shall be entitled to the same relief as if it had instituted the

action.
