[Chief X_Phackter]

Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law - absolutely yes. However, that doesn't mean this franchise needs to trade for him and then find out whether he is innocent or guilty. It's too much of a risk. This definitely has to play all the way out to the point where the team knows the actual risk involved, before trying to trade for him. Maybe he's a sleazy guy who did nothing criminal. Maybe he's a sleazy guy who crossed the line into the realm of being a sexual predator. At this point, only a handful of people know which one he is...I'll pass until he is cleared.
