Thanks for the info. Its crazy to me how many people regularly completely disregard the concept of "innocent until proven guilty" like its not one of the, if not THE most important thing in our legal system.

Innocent until proven guilty only applies to the government unless there are specific protections in place. The court of public opinion still exists. Fortunately my state updated their human rights act to prevent this kind of thing in regards to housing.
