Compensation aims to return the plaintiff to their pre-injury state. Given that time travel is impossible, monetary assistance is utilized to aid in their recovery. The community aspect pertains to enhancing community safety by ensuring wrongdoers are held answerable. Hence, each case presents an opportunity to safeguard our community, families, and ourselves from similar incidents.
