Firefighting is known to attract arsonists… probably a bit harder to vet known criminals

Honestly if anything I think it would be easier than vetting someone with no background, you already have what they've been convicted of. Idk how many burglars or murderers like to dabble in arson.

If only there were more context and nuance available than "convict/not convict" when making such determinations and risk assessments about candidates...
