    I've seen liberals on the internet think that there's a clear difference between cops and correctional officers. That cops are bad and need to be defunded while those working in corrections are doing a good service. It's not good.

      Aren't abuses in prison pretty rampant? You can't give somebody that much control over another human and not expect it to go horribly wrong eventually. But also, it says probation officer, I'm willing to believe they're less bad than cops and correctional officers. Being on the rehabilitation end of the legal system hopefully attracts fewer psychopaths, but also you are given less direct authority than correctional officers so less room for abuse.
