An adult prison system, also referred to as a correctional or penal system, is a network of state-run or private facilities designed to confine individuals legally classified as adults who have been convicted of crimes or are awaiting trial. These systems serve to enforce judicial sentences through incarceration, aiming to provide punishment, deterrence, rehabilitation, and public safety. They are distinct from juvenile justice systems, which handle underage offenders.
