How do corrections officers who work on death row view their jobs?
What will be an ideal response?
Most officers working on death row seem positive about their jobs, and most inmates on death row feel they are being treated with respect by the officers. Because of the amount of time that offenders spend on death row, some officers build rapport with the inmates and do feel a sense of loss when the inmates are put to death. The officers do not feel that they are responsible for their deaths, but still feel a sense of loss.
