Both Mr. Hale is very trusted and respected by people like how Dr. Phil is widely trusted and respected by people.

Prediction

I believe that Mr. Hale will go and prosecute many people in Salem for being a witch. It says in his description, "This is a beloved errand for him; on being called here to ascertain witchcraft he felt the pride of the specialist whose unique knowledge has at last been publicly called for"(Miller 49). He is full of confidence in himself yet he lacks experience. I predict that that combination will lead him to make some very bad choices.
