I know someone who had hired several ex-cons under such a program, sincerely hoping to help them get a new start. Had no luck with any of them, and the last two robbed her facility of restricted drugs (she was a veterinarian) and when they were caught selling the stolen drugs, SHE is the one who lost her license and (after fighting the ruling for a couple years) eventually lost her business entirely -- for "allowing" restricted drugs to be distributed without a prescription, even tho she was the one robbed and wronged here. In fact she narrowly avoided prosecution (losing her license was part of the deal).
This might not have happened in a state with a more-rational regulatory system and a less-predatory court system, but this was California.
