I hope that Ched Evans gets a job with a club and becomes a productive member of society. The practice of making felons unemployable pariahs is dumb and just encourages recidivism.

Reminder: It's not just because he's a convicted rapist, it's because he still denies guilt or accepts responsibility. The done his time crew might have a better argument if he wasn't claiming infidelity was all he did wrong.

I'm pretty sure Evans could get a job outside of the UK. A job as a footballer that is.

This is a valid thing that all convicted criminals are allowed to do. Slaapaav posted:hes not a felon who has done his time hes a rapist who has done his time and those two are completely different things True. As such he is on the sexual offenders registry for life and by law can't work in schools and hospitals.

No it's not, he's been denied leave to appeal Anyway, relevant links are: http://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/oct/22/ched-evans-act-of-infidelity-rape-conviction-video-statement For stuff that happened recently (no real further progress has been made aside from the current people-withdrawing-support stuff) and https://www.crimeline.info/case/r-v-ched-evans-chedwyn-evans For the original conviction

If he'd come out of prison full of remorse and apologies, this wouldn't even be news anymore. The fact he's still denying guilt and thinks that what he did was fuckin awesome means nobody in their right mind will employ him as a professional footballer.

blue footed boobie posted:They literally aren't, though. Rape is a felony and he is felon. im not from a english speaking country (everyone in norway speaks or understands english to some degree) so i have a tendency use a mishmash of american and british type words. according to wikipedia the word has roughly the same meaning as "criminal" in the uk but in the usa it has a more specific meaning. felon is 5 letters and criminal is 8 so felon is clearly the superior word if you are (like me) a lazy person

Ched should just try to move to a country more accepting of the charge, like say, Qatar.

Shrapnig posted:He's going to go play in the ISL and take the bus to training and matches. This isn't getting the love it deserves. The whole situation is quite tricky and the cynic in me things there are a lot of people using it to their advantage. Clegg coming out against it the other day smacked of trying to curry favour coming up to an election. The sponsors are probably getting as much good publicity out of threatening to pull their deals as they are sponsoring the back of Sheffield United's shirts. I'm not defending him for a second or saying he should be let play again automatically, but I don't buy this whole "players as role models" thing. He was a professional footballer because he was good enough to be, not because of any moral character he may or may not have.
