Though he has yet to be convicted, the York Federation of Students Board of Directors is refusing to allow him to participate in a long-planned concert.<\/p>\n<p>Though most people are not losing out on concert deals, there are certainly individuals who have served time for violent offences or are even suspected of injuring another whose employment has been compromised. It doesn\u2019t matter if there is evidence that supports the charge, many employers are willing to fire or suspend someone on the mere suspicion of violent crimes, rationalizing that they are protecting their other employees.<\/p>\n<p>If a suspect is able to have charges dropped, however, he or she may be able to repair his or her reputation.
