    Alleged is just “don’t sue me bro.” It’s fine to wait for a verdict, but at the same time keep in mind that a guilty verdict doesn’t mean they actually did something reprehensible and an innocent verdict doesn’t mean they didn’t. At some point you have to examine the situation and make a judgement for yourself.

    I wouldn’t let my daughters hang with OJ or Cosby (in some silly world where they wanted to hang with people that old) regardless of what a court says. I applaud an open mind because an accusation isn’t a verdict, but at some point you just have to decide who you find credible, while acknowledging that we are prone to bias.
