The phrase "establish justice" in the Constitution's preamble encompasses a broader commitment to creating a fair legal system and ensuring that laws are applied equally to all citizens. While hiring police and building prisons are practical aspects of law enforcement and maintaining order, the goal of establishing justice also includes upholding individual rights, providing fair trials, and promoting social equity. Therefore, it reflects a foundational principle of a just society rather than merely the logistics of enforcement.
Before the creation of the Department of Justice in 1870, federal prisons were primarily managed by the Department of the Treasury. Specifically, the Bureau of Prisons, which was established later in 1930, came under the jurisdiction of the Department of Justice after its formation. The early management of federal prisons involved various agencies, including the U.S. Marshals and the Bureau of Indian Affairs, before a more centralized system was established.

Federal prisons are jurisdiction of the Bureau of Prisons, and is subordinate to the United States Department of Justice. At state level, they're usually maintained by the Department of Corrections, which will normally be subordinate to the state Department of Justice or Department of Public Safety.
The Supreme Court rules on the constitutionality of issues. Their scope is only to interpret the Constitution. The premise of overcrowding in prisons is that it is an improper living condition violating human rights. The Court has mandated that the Federal Government establish standards for prison populations.
