The Criminal Justice System in USA

The criminal justice system of the United States was established with a noble intention. The foundation of the system can go back to the first book of the Bible Genesis, and to the story of Cain and Able. The criminal justice system has been established to be morally suitable for an increasingly diverse society. The moral dilemma in the system arises from problems related to the principles of correct actions and misbehavior of officials. These principles are often embedded in human culture. In other words, it is considered indispensable to the criminal justice system.

In this article, I will study the procedures in the criminal justice system. Before laying the foundation for this work, I will briefly introduce the contents of the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system is a collection of laws and social institutions that enforce the criminal law, while observing a series of clear procedural rules and restrictions. And Dignan, J. (2007) The procedure in the criminal system has already been stated as "starting only when crime is reported to the police" (page 2). When a crime occurs, the main content of the relevant criminal justice system is the law enforcement agency, otherwise it is the police. The police 's top priority is to investigate the crime and make an appropriate arrest. The power of the police is dominated by the states in which they are engaged and engaged.

In the United States, criminal management and judicial administration are handled by the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system consists of three major and distinguishable elements of police, court, and disciplinary action. These components are also called subsystems. From this point of view, the components of the criminal justice system are considered to be interrelated, interdependent and working to achieve a unified goal. The prospect of this criminal trial tends to focus on how the incident flows in the system, causing a chain reaction when an incident is transferred from one component to another component. For example, the behavior of the street police affected the work of the court, and the decision of the judge of the court affected the operation of the prison and the prison.
