Considering the person in question hasn’t been giving detailed interviews she really can’t be described as a “credible accuser” anyway. We haven’t really gotten a description of what the accusation even might be.
It would make far more sense to just get her and her supervisor on record and a copy of any emails between them before we need to jump to impugning anyone’s character because of dismissed criminal charges.
Edit: here is the only other detailed communication I’ve seen so far and it really just isn’t clear what’s happening here or why she was fired. https://mobile.twitter.com/FBSaunders/status/126286780574299...
You run a background check on Bill. It turns out that Bill has a criminal history including charges of assaulting an officer and cyber-stalking an ex. Is your opinion of Bill affected in any way? Of course it is. Bill has a history of making terrible decisions. You would be remiss if you didn't question his temperament and fitness for employment.
Point being, Rebecca has a history of making bad decisions. How does that not affect your take on whether on whether she is a credible accuser?
This isn't a '2020' thing, it's a 'having all the data' thing.
