Punishments


Hanging - this is a deterrent as others who see that a person who has committed a crime has been hung, others will not wish to be treated the same and so will avoid this behaviour.
Prison - this is public protection as it takes the criminal out of society and therefore protects its innocent members.
Community Service - reparation as the criminal is giving something back to the community.
Fines - this is also reparation as it's a form of pay back for the criminal.
