You're correct that it's not a slam dunk indication of guilt, but that's never the case in situations like this.
At the very least it's suspicious, and everybody involved should have known better.

The FTC didn't hire Wright, Wright was appointed to the FTC by the President of the United States and confirmed by the Senate. The FTC doesn't choose its own commissioners any more than the Supreme Court chooses its own members.
