So I just discovered that I have been working next to the waste of oxygen that raped my best friend several years ago. I work in a manufacturing environment and I know that you can’t fire someone just for being a sex offender unless it directly interferes with work duties (in the US). But despite it being a primarily male workforce he does work with several women who have no idea what he is. He literally followed a woman home, broke into her house, and raped her. Him working here puts every female employee at risk. How is that not an unsafe working environment? How is it at even legal to employ him anywhere where he will have contact with women?

    It could either be:

    1. The rapist did not disclose the conviction
    2. The HR group didn’t perform their due diligence with background checks

    OR

    1. The rapist was not convicted

    OR

    1. Charges were never filed

    OR

    1. Charges were filed but dropped later on

      Or he was charged, found guilty, served his time, and got out.

      You missed, he did disclose it and HR hired him anyways. Which is legal.
