Which unit examines the legal consequences of criminal behaviour?

• A. Crime Scene to Courtroom
• B. Internal Assessment
• C. GLH
• D. Crime and Punishment

Answer: (D)

This question tests which unit focuses on how society responds to crime. The Crime and Punishment unit is centered on the legal consequences of criminal behaviour—how the criminal justice system handles offenders, why punishment exists, and the different sanctions and sentencing options used after a conviction. It also covers the aims of punishment, such as deterrence, rehabilitation, and protection, and how these shape the legal response to crime.

The other options don’t target this focus. Crime Scene to Courtroom is about the investigation process and courtroom procedures, not the outcomes or consequences imposed by the law. Internal Assessment refers to a type of assessment, and GLH means Guided Learning Hours, which is a planning metric rather than a unit.
