Necessary corrections system for crimes
I believe that the public has a favourable view of the correctional systems. I also agree with this current correctional system because, whenever the government could penalize, it couldn’t go over what is necessary for the safety of the society (Beccaria 2016). instead of government punish the individuals who threatened the society, they have the right to impose punishments that were necessary for the crime (Beccaria 2016). However, when generating a correctional system, a synthetic form of punishment must also be formed, which is very important in criminal justice systems (Beccaria 2016). The criminal as the do crimes are aware of what kind of necessary inflict punishment that they will receive.
Our current practices have aligned with the actual historical purpose of correction. The unnecessary punishment has been found not useful and unconstitutional by the court (Slater 2018). For example, a court has found that it’s not necessary to handcuffing a prisoner to a horizontal bar exposed to the sun for a couple of hours and also the execution of insane people. The Eighth Amendment of the constitution has forbidden grossly excessive penalties (Slater 2018). for example, a court can conclude that the punishment is not necessary for the crime committed, this happened When more severe crimes resulted in fewer corrections than the punishment being examined or when other states less severely punish an identical crime. Our current practices of correction system the prison officials are not supposed to maliciously and sadistically and use force to harm the criminals (Slater 2018). The supreme court gauges the public opinion of evaluating whether the corrections are necessary or unnecessary by evolving states’ legislatures and juries.
