And I know that the difference between allegations and actual conviction don't matter much to today's ACLU fuck
Then you probably also know that 'convictions' only apply to criminal proceedings, not lawsuits (as in the case of sexual harassment), and that 'allegations' are accusations, not reporting of past events.
You mentioned "legality". So, there were "accusations" and these were settled. Now, 20 years later, those who took the cash out are suddenly changing their mind. Yeah, nothing muddy at all about that.
