The aim of the restorative justice process is “to make things right” on the side of both the victim and the criminal instead of satisfying abstract legal principles or punishing the offender. The process is divided into two parts, when the suspect admits the crime, and when he/she denies it. When the suspect admits the crime, a restorative meeting circle that is attended by the victim and criminal’s support teams as deemed by them is arranged where they can reach a reconciliatory state. The meeting is arranged after acceptance by both the victim and suspect after an interview on the same. Before the meeting, an investigating magistrate issues a report containing the recommended restitution to be paid by the criminal to the victim and the victim may comply, and the criminal sends an apology letter to the victim. In the circle, the victim, criminal and their support teams such as parents, neighbors, investigating officers, and personal victim support coordinators discuss the issues surrounding the crime occurrence. The effect of the crime on others other than the immediate victim is also examined. The criminal apologizes to the victim and all the people who are affected by the criminal event. The criminal is also supposed to accept to pay restitution recommended by the investigating magistrate. At any point when a suspect presented to the restorative justice process denies having committed a crime, the case is forwarded to adversarial court for trial at which the suspect can opt for the co-operational resolution of the matter. The suspect meets a lawyer who states the options available. The victim also has the right to appear with a lawyer concerning the charge, restitution and protection. The suspect is represented by the lawyer who presented the options available. In the adversarial court, the suspect is notified of the presence of the restorative circles that are only available if the suspect admits responsibility. If the suspect is found guilty, a pre-sentence investigation is carried out on the background of the criminal that is lastly used to impose restitution and relevant sentence since the sentence has to consider two factors- affect on the immediate victim, and risk imposed on the community and the victim by the criminal(Schmalleger & Hall, 2010). The crime involved in the restorative justice case study had several effects on other people other than the immediate victim of the crime, Mildred. Mildred’s daughter, Betty and her husband get an increased burden to take care of Mildred at a time when they had other commitments with their kids. They have to make more maneuvers in town since the crime took place. Barbara, who had recently moved into Mildred’s neighborhood states that the crime increased her sense of insecurity, and her son even asked if the bad people would break into their house and take his toys. She states that the crime made them potentially vulnerable especially at a time nobody was home. David’s involvement in the crime also altered the usual fishing activities between him and his uncle. Before the crime, David had picked up a fight with his teammate and his coach was forced to expel him from the team which was a prelude to the crime. As opposed to criminal justice, the suspect has no opportunity to meet the victim openly and does not provide any reconciliation proc
