My main concern is he presented explanations, not apologies.
And I admittedly have no idea how the job market works, since I made the mistake of discussing working in intelligence when I was in my early 20s, and have had a series of folks try to keep me precarious ever since while simultaneously complaining I seem a bit… extreme.
(That’s what happens when someone senses a disconnect between cause and effect… they stop thinking as much about consequences.)

In case you aren't one of his victims he doesn't owe you an apology.

And I don’t owe him assistance.
You are absolutely correct that I am prejudiced - against folks I feel are entitled and antisocial.
A different tone and word choice would have generated a very different response, given he doesn’t sound like a “hands on” offender and thus not actually as huge employment risk as a full blown rapist.
You sound pretty prejudiced.
Why is him taking a job "from others" a problem that concerns you? He seems to be qualified in his field. That's how the job market works for anyone.
We don't even know how old his kids are. Maybe they were born before the incident?
According to him his behaviour was caused by a mental illness (-> circumstances that can be considered out of his control).
Also according to him his behaviour has stopped for years when the mental illness stopped.
Do you have any additional information we don't have that by western ethical standards would justify such a harsh verdict?
