Standard thugs are applied a Batman-like trashing and delivered to the relevant authorities. Serious criminals whose actions warrant a permanent solution are usually destroyed on the field, and recycled into work tools and medical supplies he donates to communities in need.

If sufficient mitigating circumstances or particular tactical interest warrant in, they are given a choice : they can change, or they can die. They are notably informed that the personality correction would not only remove the threat they represent for society, but also make them significantly happier as a person. If they decide their current identity is more important than their continued existence, they are painlessly terminated, their remains are assimilated and the materials are used to create a perfect replica with corrected personality, who will inherit their memories and enjoy the second chance that the original declined.

Lawrence doesn't use reality warping at all, as his primary Selforge powers already offer him all the options he needs, and he sees reality warping as simply too game breaking for long-term enjoyment (a bit of cheating makes any game more exciting, but thought=reality make the experience meaningless).
