Criminal Justice refers to the agencies of government charged with enforcing a law, adjudicating crime, and correcting criminal conduct. The criminal justice system is essentially an instrument of social control: society considers some behaviors so dangerous and destructive that it either strictly controls their occurrence or outlaws them outright. It is the job of the agencies of justice to prevent these behaviors by apprehending and punishing transgressors or deterring their future occurrence. Although society maintains other forms of social control, such as the family, school, and church, they are designed to deal with moral, not legal, misbehavior. Only the criminal justice system has the power to control crime and punish criminals. The main objectives of the criminal justice system can be categorized as follows: -To prevent the occurrence of crime. -To punish the transgressors and the criminals. -To rehabilitate the transgressors and the criminals. -To compensate the victims as far as possible. -To maintain law and order in the society. -To deter the offenders from committing any criminal act in the future.
