Criminal Justice Research Models

CJA/345



Criminal Justice Research Models

Several research models have mostly been developed throughout history and evolution of

the general criminal justice and law enforcement entities, with some preeminent models: The

efficiency model, restricted functions model, victim rights models, and Herbert Packer’s two key

models (the due process and crime control models), which essentially are reasonably significant.

The efficiency model consists mainly of reducing crime efficiently while improving the

criminal justice system [ CITATION Gar71 \l 1033 ], which is essentially quite significant. This

refers to the court's ability to process cases timelier while officers apprehend, for all intents and

purposes, more offenders. This can be implemented as a connecting model that can substantially

reduce crime [ CITATION Gar71 \l 1033 ], demonstrating that the efficiency model consists

mainly of providing a decrease of crime efficiently while improving the criminal justice system,

which is reasonably significant. This model’s implementation demands a notable investment in

human resources and all individuals’ operational practices within the criminal justice system,

tools, types of equipment, and systems [ CITATION Gar71 \l 1033 ].

The restricted functions Model refers to the challenges to certain aspects within the

criminal justice system. Some of the elements are whether it is valuable for “crimes without

victims” [ CITATION Gar71 \l 1033 ]. Gardiner also explains whether petty offenses such as

traffic, gambling, prostitution, disorderly conduct, and drug use. The division arises due to the

fact that these offenses are not a threat to society, and thus, the resources might be wasted rather

than concentrating on more concerning cases [ CITATION Gar71 \l 1033 ].

, The victims’ rights models are presented in two different models. The punitive and non-

punitive model of victims’ rights [ CITATION Roa99 \l 1033 ]. The punitive model can be

interpreted as a very complicated model. It maintains the direct adjustment of the crime control

and due process models, moving directly to hearings, appeals, and punishments. Still, it might

not be that linear because of the criminal sanction's documented negligence to restrain crime and

respect victims. However, the non-punitive model is represented by a circle that depicts thriving

crime restriction by incentivizing family and community with corrective regulation [ CITATION

Roa99 \l 1033 ]. In other words, the punitive model represents a straighter forward model where

punishment and criminalization need to be implemented. In contrast, the non-punitive model is

designed in a more restitution fashion, orientated to help and improve the well-being of those

involved.

The crime control model is designated to approach the legislature rather than the courts

directly as the authoritarian figure within the criminal justice system by taking the legislatures on

criminal sanctions [ CITATION Roa99 \l 1033 ]. It is based on the premise that criminal

conduct's oppression is by far the criminal process's crucial function. Criminal behavior is not

under control and might represent a threat to human freedom [CITATION Pac68 \p 4 \l 1033 ].

When there is a failure to apprehend criminals and give positive convictions, then the respect for

the system goes down, prompting a disregard for the law, considering the system's faith is

broken. However, the crime control model presents an operative process to screen suspects to

determine guilt, consequently providing the right conviction [CITATION Pac68 \p 4 \l 1033 ].

The due process model is centered on the idea that an individual has inalienable rights

and cannot be stripped of them without proper constitutional protections and procedures. It also

warrants merit in the processes used to deny a person of their rights [ CITATION Roa99 \l
