This was the cssa crime question from the 2023 trial:
"Defences to criminal charges can reflect the tension between community interests and individual rights and freedoms."
Assess this statement with reference to the criminal justice system

Does this mean you can only talk about defences in the whole essay, or can i do just one paragraph on defences and then two other paragraphs on general things that reflect the tensions (e.g. police powers or bail) in the criminal justice system?

It seems to require that basic tenets of justice need to be discussed, such as immunity to self-incrimination, medical and psychological incapacity, age of criminal responsibilty and the presumption of innocence.
