Background Checks

[Adam]

BTW, I'm not positive I'd put murder in the automatic category either, although I must admit to some ambivalence on it.

If enough time had passed (and I'd say a 25 year prison sentence would be a lot of time), and the individual currently displays sufficient character, I'd be inclined to allow him to officiate. What exactly do we think he's going to do in an officiating environment?

That said, I wouldn't have a hard time accepting the decision to leave these folks out, either. There is significance to the point that there are certain crimes that will forever alter a person's ability to participate in society.

M&M, I have no desire to find out what you checked out of the library. My officiating fees don't cover the required therapy.
