Yes, but he was really bad in some respects, that clashes with his public image/caricature in a way that kind of matters

In what respects?

He is known to be a womanizer and to have used his fame to sleep with women, and may have fathered some illegitimate children.
But the most damning is that apparently the FBI has an audio recording of him laughing and even giving encouragement while another man rapes a woman in a hotel room.

The same FBI that sent him anonymous letters, trying to encourage MLK to choose suicide?

It's hard to blackmail someone with false information. That's why Hoover was spying and digging up dirt.

Why didn't the police proceed with criminal charges?

You can say the same thing for literally every political figure throughout all of human history. People have said this throughout all recorded history.
Please read a book.

I mean, we're regressing everything else back to the good ol' 1960's, so yeah, sure, why not, lets whip out the ol "sexual deviant" playbook to discredit some basic human rights and fairness.
As long as people are distracted by some black guy's bisexuality or whatever they won't ask questions about all the underage human trafficking on epstein's lolita express with the people who are actually alive and running the government today.
Oh, and icing on the cake: it's a good pretext to remove MLK Day and that Black History Month. Guy was a sexual deviant, so clearly the civil rights movement was a giant discredited DEI sham. eg https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/defense-agency...
