<u>In some </u><u>Native American</u><u> communities, people accused of breaking the law meet with community members, victims (if any), village elders, and agents of the justice system in a sentencing circle</u>. A sentencing circle involves discussion between offenders, victims, and members of the community. A person sitting in the circle has no special powers/privileges. The circle operates on the basis of consensus. Each member of the circle expresses his/her feelings about the act that was committed and raises questions/concerns. The accused can express regret about his/her actions and a desire to change the harmful behavior. This question is related to Criminology.
