Not sure how I feel about his return to public life. Problem is his public life was never the problem, it was his private life. And him doing stand up gives me no indication that he can act like a regular member of society again. I also don’t know what an acceptable level of public punishment should be. Other than a symbolic gesture to make us feel better.

Agree with all that and....we don't know what he did while he was away.
Do we have the right to know? Perhaps not. But it feels like if he could articulate how he spent that time away and took specific actions to address his issues - it would help to accept his return.
Does have the obligation to do that? Maybe, or maybe not. But it feels like the right thing.
