What a good career path for felon?
Many criminals of all stripes, from tax fraud to burglary, have made honest careers from telling folks how to avoid problems with people in their old field. Consultants in security , with a back ground in B&E can walk through a plant or home pointing out how they would have gotten in, what they would have taken, and what they would have been scared away by. Having a line of security goods (alarms, bars and locks) is a good side line, as is giving talks to Criminology classes at colleges.
