There are some lacks of a judicial process in many countries including Thailand. Some prisoners were made the scapegoat for other people’s crimes. For example, in case of murder, Wuttichai Jaisamak was a wrongfully imprisoned person.

Let us break down what justice is; justice is behaviour that is just or fair.

She answers him, “no, and I hate when you treat me like your associates at work.”

This limitation that she had faced was that her mother was holding her back because of her limitations of the English language. For an example, Tan had to make countless phone calls for her mother because the business personal on the other end of the line could not take the broken English very seriously. This also applied in general public too. For example, “people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her” (Tan

I had no idea what to do, all the girls on the team had turned against me, and I was getting to the point of defeat by this pointless drama. Homecoming night came along and I was in her group. My parents had been a little cold to her parents during pictures, so as we got to the dance I got a call from my sister that this girl 's mom had told my parents that I had sent texts threatening her, and they had the texts and were going to send them to my parents. Completely astonished I quickly denied it, and confronted the girl asking her if I had done that, and she said, “no I do not remember that.” After that I felt a little at ease, but her mom was adamant about these texts.

A criminal offence may lead to the panicky or the chaos of the society. For instance, terrorism, murder, burglary and so on. The target of the criminal law is to decide if the person breaks the law. The person who committed a crime could be said that he or she has offended against the state and the person should be prosecuted as the state has the rights when the person has broken the queen’s peace of the society. Furthermore, the punishment of the criminal offence could be prison, fines, community sentence and so on.

The reporter said the checks are being cashed with “no notation on the checks or no invoice on the checks”. The reporter said the perpetrators are telling the victim to write the checks by being manipulative and she writes them. Reverend Ann Whitaker said that “whatever services they are billing for, they are not completing the services because the house is a mess”. The reporter is worried that they have gotten the victim to sign documents unknowingly.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you are here because one person in this courtroom decided to take law into her own hands. The defendant, Mrs. Dominique Stephens, murdered the man that she vowed to love. This sole act by the defendant is violation of all morals and her husband’s right to live. Afterwards, she even felt guilty about this violation of justice and called the cops on herself, and she later signed a written statement stating that she is guilty of the murder of Mr. Donovan Stephens. Then the defendant later recanted this statement and said that she only killed Mr. Stephens in self defense.

For centuries, the criminal justice system has continually evolved and adapted to society where its sole purpose has been to punish those that break the laws deemed to be uncivilized. By punishing criminals, it attempts to maintain peace and order in society so that chaos and anarchy does not run amok. The criminal justice system we have today is divided into three sections, each with different responsibilities to uphold. The police are in charge of investigating and capturing criminals, the courts are in charge with the decision of whether or not a crime has been committed and if the person should be charged, and the corrections system is responsible for making sure the punishment given by the court is carried out (Mallicoat 2017:4). By examining the two contrasting ideologies of the criminal justice system, crime control and due process, we can see that our criminal justice system is flawed in maintaining public order and protecting our rights.

Defendant’s physical well-being is often ignored as noted in the above case, but their mental well-being is ignored as well. Jail inmates are often traumatized due to the treatment they undergo while incarcerated. Kalief Browder is just one example of an inmate who while awating trial was place in solitary confinement. Browder endured over 700 hundred days in solitary ultimately causing his mental health to severely decline (Gonnerman, 2014). The physical and mental trauma that inmates experience before they even undergo trial or receive plea deals demonstrates how the process of entering the criminal justice system is punishment itself.
