The Correction System
By: Kollin Stewart, Taylee Middlebrooks, Mackenzie Nolan
Probation
Act of suspecting the sentence of a criminal offender and giving him or her freedom under the supervision of an officer of the law.
Parole
Release from prison or jail before the full term is up on condition of lawful behavior and with the requirement of regular reporting to an officer of the court.
Main ideas
When someone is found guilty, or convicted, of a crime, the correction system takes over.
The correction system treats offenders in a number of ways: probation, fines, community services, prison, and death penalty.
