I will treat them with dignity and respect. I believe that these individuals need to feel that someone genuinely believes in them and wants to see them succeed.
Marcie's Feedback
Great answer! You come across as sincere in your desire to help others, which will be meaningful to the interviewer. Although you will treat the criminals with dignity and respect, you may also want to mention that you will additionally strive to be fair, firm, and professional at all times. You need to show that you have the ability to balance being both kind and tough.
