I wouldn't blame anyone for refusing to shop there, and for making sure their kids gave the place a wide berth. I'm pretty sure that the man's parole officer has to feel the man is not at risk to repeat the crime, or the officer would not permit the man to have a business that gives him so much contact with the public, and with a young public at that. The convicted offender that I have contact with at the BI rehab is under EXTREMELY tight constraints via his parole officer, and always will be.

For myself, I would give him a chance to rebuild his life. Hopefully, he's doing hard therapuetic work and making financial restitution to the victim, too.
