VA: Juice shop closes after employees discover owner’s brother is registrant.

A popular juice shop in Richmond, Virginia closed after employees discovered that the owner’s brother had a Florida criminal record for sexual battery. According to reporting by WRIC, staff became aware of the brother’s history and raised concerns about his involvement in the business.

As the situation developed, it appears the brother had worked for the business without being disclosed as a registrant to the other employees. Employees reportedly quit en masse, causing the business to close.

What do you think? Should the employee’s history have been disclosed or do you think it was was nobody’s business?

    What did the employees give as a reason for their quitting?

    “Eeeeewwww! Cooties!” ????
