Punishment for crimes may have some purposes:
- Retribution: felons harmed society, so society sees itself entitled to inflict felons harm in return.
- Deterrence: punishments threat people from committing crimes.
- Incapacitation: felons are held in prisons and thus cannot commit more crimes.
- Rehabilitation: punishments aim to change felons so that they would be able to be accepted back to society.
- Restitution: felons are required to take action which purpose is to partially compensate victims for the injustice that they suffered.
