Could you get convicted of a crime and still keep a stable and profitable career? For most citizens of our nation this question is false all the time...unless of course your a celebrity and you get special treatment. Although I find treating others differently as wrong, but given the case of Mike Tyson and his past, I could see why he would get treated as he did. But on the other had, judging and basing someones whole life by one or two actions at a time in their life when they had an obvious low. I for one would be looked down upon and possibly never get a good job given my background, but as always people change, mistakes are learned from, and life goes on.
