Question

Identify and discuss two different goals that the criminal justice system has.

Answer 1

The two different goals that the criminal justice has are to prevent crime and reform the offenders. the first aim is to prevent crime from happening in the first place with the use of general deterrence in hopes that before committing people will weigh the pros and cons of the action. the second aim is to reform the offenders by changing the stimuli that caused them to commit a crime in order to ensure that they become productive, law-abiding members of society.
