Criminal Justice System

The criminal justice system is a framework used by societies to maintain order and enforce laws. It involves three main components: law enforcement (police who investigate crimes), the judiciary (courts that interpret laws and conduct trials), and corrections (jails and rehabilitation programs for offenders). The system aims to prevent crime, ensure fair trials, hold offenders accountable, and ultimately protect the public. It also seeks to rehabilitate individuals to reintegrate them into society, balancing punishment with the potential for reform. Each component works together to uphold justice and promote safety in the community.
