Answer:

Deterrence

Explanation:

Deterrence is the idea that threat of punishment will prevent people from committing a crime. Deterrence is a form of crime prevention. <u>Deterrence works when observers seeing offenders being punished for their crimes are discouraged from commiting a similar crime due to fear of punishment</u>.
