Three subsystems of criminal justice work together to achieve fair outcomes for all people involved. First come the police, which is the first agency to come into contact with crime and aims to find and investigate crime and to maintain public safety. Second comes the criminal courts, where crimes are brought to be tried, and which are responsible for upholding the law while sentencing people who are deemed guilty. Third comes the correctional agencies, which carry out the custody and supervision of convicts in accordance with the courts' sentence and the safety of the convicts.
