Unions don't represent the public they represent the employees within the union. The failure would be on the employer if the person was allowed to continue work

Maybe it's just me but the union has an obligation to protect the other employees too and making sure a murderer sticks around is not beneficial to anyone.

What is the employer supposed to do? If the union has used their power to maintain employment for a murderer then the employer is limited in their options aren't they? If employers who had unionized employees could just ignore the rules of their collective bargaining and union agreement then the union would be useless.
