You don't know his bail conditions

I don't. But they're often imposed and the reason they're often imposed is to try to prevent any further offences being committed whilst a Defendant is on bail. My point is, before a person is judged to be guilty or not guilty, safeguards are put in place to try to prevent further offences taking place. EG say a window cleaner has been using that job as cover for committing burglaries in a certain area- it's sensible for his bail conditions to prevent him from entering that area. In grooming cases, where, potentially, a person has used their position in society to attract their victims, it's probably reasonable to deny them the use of that position to attract other victims. It's not assuming the accused is guilty, it's measures taken to prevent there being further victims. If his job or position in society has been a factor in a persons offending, do you think it's sensible to allow that person to continue in their role whilst awaiting trial?
