Abstract

During the past 20 years, a web of groups has arisen in England and Wales to support and campaign for those intimately affected by homicide. So far, they have made a barely perceptible mark on the formation of policy, and their members have not even been awarded a clear public character and legal standing by politicians and officials. Some, but not all, are generally acknowledged to be people who have suffered, and it has proved difficult to refuse them an audience. However, quite how they could or should fit into the criminal justice system is not at all certain. In this article, I examine some of the processes that have affected their relations to the state.
