Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Friday, December 28, 2001 8:29 PM Comments on Interim Final Rule I would like to see an additional adjustment made to the compensation amount calculation. This would be the final step, after determining economic amount, non-economic amount, and reduction for "collateral amounts". Obviously, distribution of the compensation should be subject to approval by the "Big Guy" so that the impact of the adjustment is justly directed. 1) Out of respect to the citizens of this country, there should be an automatic 50% reduction if the victim (deceased or injured) or any recipient of compensation was/is here illegally. 2) Out of respect to the (human) law enforcement/fire/rescue/etc. personnel who risked (and in some cases lost) their lives in reacting to this event, there should be an automatic 50% reduction if the victim (deceased or injured) or any recipient of compensation had/has ever been convicted of a felony, or if no convictions, has/had 5 or more significant charges of any type on their record. 3) Out of respect to the search-and-rescue dogs (some of who also lost their lives), there should be an automatic 50% reduction if the victim (deceased or injured) or any recipient of compensation had/has been convicted of "cruelty or abuse of an animal".
