What is Criminal Justice?
In a nutshell, Criminal
justice is the system of law enforcement, including the bar,
the judiciary,
corrections, and probation that is directly involved in the
apprehension, prosecution, defense, sentencing, incarceration,
and supervision
of those suspected of or charged with criminal offenses. It
is a term used for the series of steps involved in proving any
criminal
activity like gathering evidences, arresting the accused, conducting
trials, making defense, pronouncing judgment after the crime
