[LOCKED] OT: Oregon State pitcher is a sexual predator

I realize college baseball is done for most of you, but this is big local news.  Also, it's pretty big in the world of college baseball given he is arguably the top pitcher (11-1 record and 0.76 ERA) on the #1 team in the country and this story broke just before the Super Regionals and MLB draft this weekend.

Summary:  Heimlich abused a female family member (6 years old or younger) back when he was 15.    He plead guilty to the felony and did his time.  What he failed to do was register as a sex offender when he moved to Oregon for college.  There are questions as to what OSU knew and when they knew it. 

I'm torn on this topic.  On one hand, what he did as a 15 year old was probably the most vile thing a human can do.  He also did not fulfill his legal duty to re-register in Oregon (though he is registered now and the police did not pursue any chargse).    On the other hand, he has fulfilled every other part of his guilty plea, and appears to be on the "straight and narrow" now. 

Should his extremely poor judgement in the past affect his future indefinitely?  Should he be banned from starting tomorrow?  Should his stock fall in the MLB draft Monday?  Where do you draw the line for something like this?
