A few years ago I met a guy through mutual interest in classic video games -- It's not like we were good friends, but he seemed like a decent guy -- I had met him twice (once at a large video arcade and once at another friends house who has about 15 full size games), and then he visited my house once to play some video games (at my house with the same friend that we had gone to play video games at with the 15 games -- he was good friends with this guy)
...well apparently not many people knew him very well as he was convicted of a crime (he was having sex with his daughter for years -- she turned 15 last year, so you do the math) this year and sentenced to 20 years -- release date is 2035. I confirmed it today by looking at the AZ Dept. of Corrections web site. He is eligible for early release Aug. 17, 2012. (7 years from now) It's pretty sad that you can be convicted for 20 years and get out in 8 with good behavior -- he should be locked up for the full 20 years.
Anyway, he use to post on a forum involved in video gaming that I also post to -- he got caught and arrested in Jan 2004 and has not posted since then, and now several people have posted asking what happened to him. The administrators that run the site obviously know why he is no longer posting to the site, but they have chosen to say he is "no longer be able to maintain his responsibilities as...".
Since I know now what happened now, should I post the information, or just let it go? It's not my goal to ruin his reputation in the gaming community, regardless of what he did in his personal life (and it's pretty horrible what he did).
So the "sort of" moral dilema is, should I post the url of the AZ Dept. of Corrections information to the video gaming community?
I know this may not seem like a big deal to some people, but thanks for reading.
