Abstract:
There is considerable evidence in procedurally policing research that indicated procedural justice is
important in fostering crime victims’ satisfaction with the police. More recently some scholars have extended the
examination of procedural justice and its influence on victims’ engagement with the criminal justice system.
Although they have examined one segment of procedural policing, that is informational justice. The study extends
the research that has been conducted in this area by examining the role that interpersonal justice plays in fostering
victims’ future engagement with the criminal justice system. The current study utilized survey data collected from
82 crime victims to show whether interpersonal justice impacts victims’ willingness to engage with the Kenya
criminal justice system.
