No, but you get a pass because he was not yet convicted.

that is what a conviction means -- we should not punish people before it, nor should we punish people that associate with them

It’s still bad judgement to hire someone who you are aware is being investigated for kidnapping and raping a 10 year old child when you are in a political party trying to get elected.

I mean it’s not a good look for a political party to play the “I knew he was being investigated for child rape, but we hired him anyway because innocent until proven guilty, even though he was actually guilty in the end” card.
