Re: Job interview spectacular failure

Of course this is Florida.
 A man wanted to be a police officer in the worst way. On his job
application, he mentioned "playing sexual games". For some reason, this
raised a red flag during the hiring process. During the interview, he
was asked to expand on the answer he gave in the application.

I'm not sure how it came up in the first place. Is there a question
asking the applicant to flat-out confess to past crimes?
 He described having committed sexual abuse and admitted to it again when
asked to expand on his answer.
 The oblivious mother of the victim was tracked down by detectives, who
said he and her daughter had a close relationship. The victim was
eventually interviewed by child welfare, who said the abuse took place
over several years when he was between the ages of 14 and 19. In court
filings, the victim's age at the time the crimes began was redacted but
he was charged with sexual battery of a child under 12.
 He's now been convicted of a crime that carries a life sentence.

 Note: It took me a number of tries to find the newspaper that actually
reported the story. I found the story on multiple news sites that simply
rewrote it without doing any original reporting, then finally found it
on the Web site for the Tampa Bay Times which credited a reporter for
the Orlando Sentinel.
 Note further that at trial, his lawyer asked that the confessions he
gave in job interviews be supressed but the judge denied the motion. It
was a job interview so I don't see how it could be considered a
confession made while in custody of the police.
