Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A probation officer is responsible for conducting investigations and supervising offenders in the community, while a parole officer only supervises offenders who have been released from prison on parole. Corrections officers work in prisons and jails, not in the community. Criminologists study crime and criminal behavior but do not typically work in a supervisory role with offenders.
