Criminal procedure, also called the criminal process or the criminal justice system, is the mechanism thought which crimes are investigated, the guilt of criminals adjudicated, and punishment imposed. It includes the police, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and courts, the practices and procedures observed by them, and legal rules that govern them. In the criminal process an individual is pitted against the government, with all of its resources and authority, and only through the criminal process can the state’s most serious sanctions – imprisonment or even death – be applied.
Criminal law defines what conduct is criminal and prescribes the punishment for criminal conduct. Criminal procedure makes the criminal law work; the sanctions defined by criminal law are only effective because the criminal process can bring the sanctions to bear on individuals who violate the law. At the same time, criminal procedure aims to make sure that criminal sanctions are applied only to those who are guilty, and only through procedures that are recognized as fair. One goal of the criminal process is to punish the guilty, but other goals are to protect the innocent and to ensure that even the guilty are protected from abuse by the government.
Although we talk about “the” criminal process, different systems are in place in each state and in the federal courts.
В той местности близ поля, где обитали пикси, жила-была одна старуха. У нее был домик и очень красивый сад, где на клумбе растила она прекраснейшие тюльпаны. Легенда гласит, будто пикси так восхищались этой клумбой, что приносили туда своих младенцев-эльфов и песнями убаюкивали их. Часто глубокой ночью можно было услышать милую колыбельную и в ночном воздухе плыла чудеснейшая музыка, словно созданная самими тюльпанами. Изящные цветы качали головками на вечернем ветру, будто задавая ритм собственной музыке. Как только младенцы-эльфы засыпали, убаюканные чудесными мелодиями, пикси возвращались на соседнее поле и начинали танцевать, оставляя круги на траве, доступные даже взглядам смертных. Так резвились они в ночное время.
