Answer to Question 1

The overriding aim of the crime control model is to ensure that suspects are processed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Advocates of this approach emphasize the importance of attempting to distinguish between the innocent and the guilty at the pre-charge stage. Extensive police powers, limited rights for suspects, and greater emphasis on pretrial processes are all seen as vital to the effective functioning of the system. In contrast, supporters of a due process approach argue that the criminal justice system must strive to protect the rights of the innocent and ensure that only the guilty are punished.
Although recognizing that the primary aim of the system is to reduce and prevent crime, adherents of the due process model maintain that safeguards are necessary to protect individual rights and to ensure that the number of wrongful convictions is kept to a minimum.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
