Identify two of the purposes of sentencing.

When a court sentences an offender, it is trying to achieve several things. The main purposes of sentencing are: - **Retribution:** Making the offender 'pay' for their crime. - **Deterrence:** Putting the offender and others off from committing similar crimes. - **Rehabilitation:** Helping the offender to change their behaviour and not re-offend. - **Protection of the public:** Keeping society safe from dangerous offenders, for example by imprisoning them. - **Reparation:** Making the offender make amends to the victim or society (e.g., through community service).
