Its easy if you have nothing to fear because you are already convicted

He wasn't though, except in the court of public opinion. He's been acquitted or found not liable in all of the cases which have gone to trial.

    Oh, I didn't follow it closely but I was convinced he was convicted of sexual abuse. I guess it just speaks about the power of public opinion even if you don't get formally convicted. For better or worse.

    he was convicted of sexual abuse

    Only by the people who were nowhere near the court cases. E.g. at least half of the Internet.
