Document Summary

28 february 2011: using specific research findings, comment on the view that it is difficult to know what sentencing policies the public favours. every report has been consistent in finding that the canadian public believe the justice system to be too lenient. However they are not very consistent in regards to sentencing policies. There are confusion and contradictory opinions about how sentencing should be. As reported in the canadian journal of criminology and criminal justice, the public seems to support the restorative sentencing objectives of promoting a sense of responsibility in the offender and securing reparation for the crime victim. But it was also found that the public strongly supports mandatory sentencing even being aware of the danger of an absolute mandatory sentence. people presumably also support multiple purposes of sentencing which depend on the nature of the offence and the offender being sentenced.
