The General Directorate of Criminal Records and Statistics registers data from the prosecutor's office and court levels of the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system process begins with the Public Prosecutor's Office and law enforcement officers becoming aware of the crime. If the prosecutor is convinced that a crime has been committed and can prove it, a public case is filed. In the next step, any criminal cases before the judge result in acquittal or conviction. This response of the criminal justice system to crime (trial and conviction) can be considered as the cost (price) of crime and constitutes the deterrence of the system. In this study, the relationship between crime and the deterrence of the criminal justice system will be examined, and data including offenses against person between 2009 and 2023, as well as economic explanatory variables, be analyzed through panel data analysis.
