He was sent to jail, finished his sentence, and is now a free man who qualifies for the Olympics. You could argue, and I'd agree, that his sentence for rape of a minor was way too low, but that is another discussion.
He committed a crime, did the time, and now qualifies.
Yeah, if he served his sentence, I don't know what else you want from him. It's not like competing in the Olympics is going to create a danger for him repeating the crime. At some point people have to be able to live their lives again.
It's not just "living their lives again", I wouldn't want a pedophile rapist to represent my country at the Olympics.
I see your point, having a rapist represent your country would be pretty disgusting, could you imagine?
It's only rape if it comes from the rape region of France. This is just sparkling sexual assault and battery.
