But seriously what the fuck, if the dude in question is literally a registered sex offender, where is the fucking issue? If you're even in a community where that's an issue, get the fuck out, or you are a fucking pedo yourself.
Didn't have to deal with that specific problem personally. But this shitshow did happen:
Big Event is happening. I am part of org team. Big Event requires participants to remain in specific hotel accommodation for Event Period. At the last Big Event, several credible accounts of serious sexual assault were made against a participant, Night Stalker. All assaults took place in the required accommodation. The org team at the time (of which I was not part) decided to deal with this by assuring the complainers that the participant would not attend any more Big Events, and on that basis they agreed to not report to police.
Big fucking mistake.
Registration for Big Event begins, and Night Stalker registers. I advise rest of org team that he's been refused reg and refunded in accordance with previous org team undertaking. Current org team explodes. "Nothing was proved". Yes, but undertaking was given, in return for which complainers agreed not to go to police, sue org or otherwise put Big Event permanently out of commission. "Nothing was proved. Night Stalker cannot be prevented from attending".
The news about Night Stalker trying to attend, and the minutes of the meeting where half the org team go in to bat for him reach the community mailing lists. Community explodes. Various truly amazing suggestions are made, such as "Night Stalker may attend but must be accommodated in a separate hotel" (translation: we fully believe he did what he was accused of, but this allows us to both believe it but not bar him from attending. Ostracisers are evil!!)
Half the org team, including me, privately agree that we will resign if Night Stalker is allowed to register in violation of previous undertaking, but either way we will abide by result of org team vote. Night Stalker is allowed back into Big Event by margin of one vote. Those of us who agreed we would resign do so, months before Big Event, leaving it in chaos. High profile community members refuse to attend Big Event if Night Stalker is there or collaborate with him.
Big Event goes ahead under reduced circumstances. Recriminations over Night Stalker incident continue to this very year of Our Lord. After both the Big Event in question and a further Big Event, more reports are made of Night Stalker's assaulting other participants. Finally Night Stalker is banned from attending but only after he states he will of choice no longer attend.
On the other hand, the guy who reportedly dropped the N word at Big Event was escorted off the premises the same day and barred for life.
