My issue is the that somehow he is automatically guilty of this "crime" or that he somehow needs to confess. It is ridiculous IMO and indefensible that the FP and its journalists can carry on with these published stories that assume guilt on a person who will never see his day in court on dropped charges. They know better than this, and we should all be smarter than this.

You're not wrong.
Since justice is intact and the truth still unclear, we have to come to the true indicator of public judgment: Trust.
With these question marks abound, can they trust him?
On a more personal level rather than political, he himself does not deserve to have a guilty tag for his accusations. But publicly, that does not earn him any trust. That said, people should be decent to him about that, to some degree.
