No, bu they wouldn't be asking the NCAA to do anything about it. It is much bigger and more serious than the NCAA.
If the offender was a lawyer for instance, his state bar would likely disbar him. State bars are not criminal courts. They don't have the job of punishing. Yet, they take action when it is appropriate similarly to a criminal court. The same standard exists for CPAs, Architects, and doctors. The NCAA or the accreditation entity would be doing no different than what happens in every other professional walk of life. Heck felons are disenfranchised.
ETA: WDE I know you don't care. I just like the give and take. I'll shut it down if you don't want to continue the debate.

It is not the NCAA's role here. They would be stretching and expanding their level of oversight far beyond what it has been or was intended to be. They struggle enough as it is, they don't need to be getting involved where they don't really belong and aren't really needed.
