Extrajudicial punishment

modification from stopping a dog barking at strangers to preventing arguments with a spouse. The first method is the most extreme: “shoot the animal.” While guaranteed to be effective, this is not the most efficient way to handle a problem behavior. Punishment is the second method and most popular, despite years of research indicating that this is also a very inefficient method of behavior modification.

There is a debate between the verdict of whether or not juvenile convicts should have a life with or without parole. A child is not an adult therefore their actions should not justify the way they are tried in a court.

However, concerning of Brent Fisse’s theory of reactive fault, many criminal justice systems execute the concept of casual fault and reactive fault. The balance between this two fault very from one jurisdiction to another but, for example, in some Asian jurisdiction, reactive fault is the greater fault than causal fault.…

but research has shown that most crimes are commited by a majority with some disorder and abnormal. When it comes to dealing with criminals, I think it's important to treat the case on an individual basis.
