Me going on at length about this:

I find it tiresome that so many people think they can know for certain what was going on based on a third-hand retelling after the fact and are so certain he was up to no good.
I am reminded of the importance of the "innocent until proven guilty" standard. Once people get it in their head that, clearly, he's guilty of something, all rational assessment seems to be readily abandoned in the name of a zeal for supposed righteousness and justice.
The term witch hunt comes to mind.
