Abstract
The Rome Statute, which established the International Criminal Court (ICC), in 2002, sought to end the impunity associated with mass crimes. After decades of negotiations in the international community, the ICC emerged to establish an apex court able to investigate and prosecute individuals most responsible for crimes of concern to the international community. These crimes include Genocide, War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity, and Crimes of Aggression.
