1. Crime Deterrence 

 Deterrence is the act of making certain actions appear undesirable and less likely to occur by instilling a fear of punishment or consequences. Criminal justice systems exist as a form of deterrence. The prospect of fines, incarceration, or death at the hands of criminal justice systems worldwide sufficiently deters many people from violating laws. 

 2. Crime Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is the goal of helping a convict who has served jail time re-enter society in a healthy way that decreases the chances of them reoffending.
