i bought my paper back so ill try to find it and send it but im pretty sure i talked about judicial discretion in courts thru mitigating factors that encourages the offender to comply with the police/judicial personnel (kinda like if u cooperate ill try to take into account ur circumstances). also talked about young offenders a lot, esp how diversionary court procedures + youth koori court is centred around community integration + rehab instead of punitive measures. alsooo victim statements! although they're not taken into consideration when deciding the sentence for the offender, they are a significant way to voice the concerns of the victim to both the public and the offender without seeing the offender face-to-face, and it could be read out in court. so many other things u can talk abt! like drug courts (their specifity targets those who need it most), good behaviour bonds, etc.
just looked at my paper: i also talked about CTP with charge negotiations --> not only encourages cooperation bw offender and court but also reduces amt of resources spent on court procedures by reducing likelihood of prolonging the case, example is R v. Taiseni. but counter argument is that offenders are forced to plead guilty even if theyre not, either due to psychological damage/pressure from society/lack of adequate legal representation. so i defined this as forced compliance.

also Children's Court is specified for a specific demographic for a reason, they're not tried the sm as adults, rehab incentive, keep youth out of prison, etc etc. but counter argument is that had the children's court been effective, then there wouldn't be an over-representation of children in prison.

wow, you talked about so many things. thank you for sharing <3
i was just wondering, would you rather gain a ton of evidence and talk about multiple things, or go really in depth with a few aspects?

for the crime essay, before going in i aimed for 3-4 paragraphs, stick with a minimum of 3! these paragraphs are just 3 topics. u can use a lot of evidence within these paragraphs but if u have too many topics and concepts then the reader finds it hard to follow what ur talking abt, u lose sight of the argument.
have three main points and u should be fine!
