McDonald's restaurants hire child molesters, sex offenders 5-1-06 http://www.newschannel5.com/content/...ates/18959.asp
Kids love to eat at McDonald's, and it's the first job for lots of teenagers. But a three-month NewsChannel 5 investigation discovered dozens of sex offenders working under the golden arches. Some of them are child molesters.
In fact, our investigation discovered -- all across the country -- sex offender after sex offender after sex offender working under the golden arches.
And the types of offenders we found -- child molesting, molestation of a juvenile, sexual abuse of a minor, rape -- surprised Jody Gorran, founder of the National Foundation to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse and a leading proponent of background checks.
"We are talking dozens and dozens of sex offenders - mainly from just four states that report the employers names," Phil Williams tells Gorran.
"Unbelieveable," he replies. "I mean this is outrageous. It tells me that this is a nationwide problem."
McDonald's says it has a policy against hiring sex offenders at its 8,000 or so company owned stores.
But at the 18,000 franchise stores that operate under the golden arches, they're free to hire anyone they want.
And inside Ronald's restaurants, those policies have sometimes turned tragic.
