I bet he will be pardoned after 1 year and commit the same crime again. Criminals who had repeat offense would have no remorse.

How does a person with a rape conviction previously get a security licence?

One hopes he is never able to secure a licence again

Sentence halved due to guilty plea, it should have been doubled due to his prior conviction

One can but hope that the victim now pursues millions in damages from the security firm that failed the security checks on their employees.

The science around supporting chemical castration, is very weak, as rape is generally less about the sexual act and more about exerting power over a victim. Castration does little to control anger etc unfortunately.

It reduces the testosterone, yes, but not necessarily the anger levels and need to have power over another person.

He is of course already a repeat offender if I read the OP correctly. Five years for this double crime is too lenient.
