Will Marsy’s Law make criminal proceedings unfair for the accused?
There is nothing in the Marsy’s Law language that diminishes any right an accused already possesses under the Constitution. There is no case law in the country that can show Marsy’s Law has infringed upon a defendant’s right to due process. Conflicting constitutionally protected rights come before the courts every day. Courts have weighed and considered these, together with the totality of the individual circumstances, and reached balanced decisions.
