Seems to me that its reasonable, after one accusation, to avoid putting the guy where he’ll be in charge of minors. But you’re talking of people who often have no money of their own, and no outside line of work.
This sounds like scandal-mongering. If there’s any “there” there, I expect the author would have mentioned it.
If he were an Obama supporter, it would (rightly) be called a "smear".
