A quick search can be a good insurance policy when hiring.
Mickey probably seemed like a nice enough fellow. After all, he was selling vacuum cleaners for Kirby, a household name in the vacuum cleaner world. The bad news was that the name recognition of Kirby resulted in one of his customers lowering her guard. While her children slept in the next room, Mickey assaulted her.
Mickey was never actually convicted of this crime. Why? Because it was much easier to simply revoke his parole for a previous sexual offense. In fact, it takes about two minutes to find that Mickey's record included three robberies, two thefts, two drug-related convictions, one assault and three convictions of indecency with a child. I haven't met the man but I'll wager that he's a friendly sort with a nice smile and a quick wit.
