This is as good as agit-prop as any.

Sorry, but not sorry: why is it important that someone was associating with a child molester, if they never experienced or was witness to, or participated in, the said crime, has an opinion? Has to defend themselves, for association?

A conclusion one can reach, upon careful inspection: molesters live among us. You will not always recognise them. Be fearful, always, of the ones you think you can trust - for their altitude, for their contribution, for their gratitude.

I thought they didn't know about the fact they were dealing with a criminal at all. So if anything to me, assuming the above is true, an apology isn't appropriate at all. If I deal with someone in good faith with no knowledge of their monstrous doings or the accusation of such I am blameless. If I am aware that they are doing things like that I should be reporting them but that's a different scenario.
