Question

question 17 (2 points)
which of the following has gained popularity because of the fact that relatively few offenders coming into the criminal justice system are in a position to provide meaningful financial restitution?
a) parole
b) incarceration
c) community service
d) none of the above

Explanation:

• Parole: It is the release of a prisoner before the completion of their sentence, conditional on good behavior. It is not directly related to the inability of offenders to provide financial restitution.
• Incarceration: It means imprisonment. While it is a form of punishment, it doesn't address the issue of financial restitution in the context of offenders' financial inability.
• Community service: When offenders can't provide financial restitution, community service is a non - financial alternative. Offenders can give back to the community through service instead of money.

Answer:

C. Community service
