I actually got blinded by the first two mentions of conviction that it didn't even register that you said charged even though I quoted it. But still, blind faith is still unreasonable. Would you hire a stranger charged with rape if they gave you a serious alibi? A verifiable "I wasn't even in the country, here are receipts and photos" type alibi. Most people would say "we'll wait until the charges are dropped to make it official but you got the job".
