Comment on How does employing a rapist not constitute an unsafe work environment for female employees?

Hey OP, if all else fails, there seem to be a lot of people in these comments willing to give a rapist a job, so he could always go and babysit their kids, or drive their sister home late at night in a taxi, or be the orderly watching their sedated aunt who is recovering in hospital, I'm sure none of them would mind any of that..

There’s a pretty far cry between leaving a sex offender alone with your child and just having them in an office where there are other people.
What is the alternative to giving rapists jobs? Either they literally are in prison for life, they get the death penalty, or they live on the streets. None of these options seems ideal. Prison is hugely expensive and doesn’t give any opportunity for rehabilitation. The death penalty is rightly abolished where I live, I don’t believe any crime is worth it. And just casting rapists into society with no hope of rehabilitation is a sure way to make them reoffend in one way or another.
