Would you want to know if a person is a registered sex offender....in all cases?

A situation occurred that a coworker advised me that a client was a pedophile. I have confirmed this info via the local registry.

I had difficulty maintaining eye contact w/ this person and engaging him in a professional manner….but I did…

Would you?

Would you always want to know if people are registered sex offenders?

In this particular situation, there is no chance that the person will come in contact w/ children.
