(C) as being an integral part of the criminal justice system and question whether
(D) an integral part of the criminal justice system and question Whether

From what I've read words like being, having been are usually avoided in GMAT SC.
D is correct

IMO: D
'consider X,Y' is a pattern not 'consider X as Y'==> b and c are out

GK,

IMO correct answer should be option D

Reason -- 'being' is mostly incorrect in GMAT. Also the correct idiom is consider xy ..

in this case X= correctios facilities
Y= integral part

This SC is purely driven by idiom usage. Idiom usage is the only differentiator between C and D .. I can see you have successfully eliminated other options.
