Not sure what an "ooperator" is, but there are other criminals whose
subsequent behavior is also exemplary. Should their past behavior be
ignored? The difference is only in degree, not in kind.
If they have already been punished in some way by the courts, then the
answer to your query is (or should be) yes. If they have not been punished
in some way by the courts, then, de facto, they have not been found guilty
of any crime, and are to be presumed innocent.
