I only found a NC democrats write up on the amendments. Here is how it was explained.
It is confusing what it really means.

quote:I saw one of the political commercials say that someone that was assaulted/raped was not notified before their accuser was let out of jail? I can't remember if it was related to this amendment though...
Victims' Rights Amendment
What you'll see on the ballot:
Constitutional amendment to strengthen protections for victims of crime; to establish certain absolute basic rights for victims; and to ensure the enforcement of these rights.
What it means:
The amendment would expand rights guaranteed to victims of certain crimes under the state constitution. The new rights focus on increasing victims' access to information related to the crime, including the right to confer with the prosecutor. It would also expand existing victims' rights to a wider range of felony cases, including those involving crimes committed by juveniles.
The amendment directs the state legislature to create a framework for victims to assert these rights. However, the amendment would not allow victims to sue the State of North Carolina for failure to provide these rights.
It is confusing what it really means.
