Let's be fair to these individuals and not presume guilt.

Media is so quick to assume the person is guilty just because of an allegation.

yes, they're legally presumed innocent but they have a LOT of 'splaining to do.

Federal lawyers are expensive, especially if the defendant is innocent. Being accused is already a punishment.
