I don't really think that's relevant to the journalism he's doing. If he didn't do it, hopefully the courts will determine his innocence. If he did do it, hopefully the courts will punish him appropriately. But either way the work is good and it's worth one's time to watch it.
Sorry to be pedantic, but in the US courts do not determine innocence as this is presumed. The courts determine guilt.

This is important to know because with cancel culture and even that previous comment, it seems people have this relationship inverted.
