The process of criminal justice involves a sequence of steps starting with investigations of the crime all through to the release of the convicted criminal from jail. The process involves both the prosecution and the defense. The most powerful officials in the American criminal justice system are the prosecutors (Hartman, 2021). They have control over the outcomes of the criminal cases and the direction to which such cases may take. The defense team plays a vital role in the system by defending the accused.
