Here’s the question that matters:  if a bad person who does bad things to people also created something good - something unrelated to the bad stuff - a piece of music in this example - and this intrinsically good creation brings people enjoyment all over the world… why do we have to throw the good out with the bad?

We can disagree.  I personally think it’s cancel culture run amok.  Cutting our nose to spite our faces. The musician/pedo is already dealing with the fallout by having his professional career destroyed.  He’s in other kinds of trouble from what I remember as well, so I don’t think he’s “gotten off the hook” for any of his crimes. But my point still stands.  Bad people are not 100% bad and this isn’t the Disney Junior channel where bad guys have absolutely no redeeming qualities.  We live in a world with many shades of gray but often behave like modern humans have only 2 colors.  The world is already a cruel hard place for us to survive in without arbitrary decisions to poison good pieces of music just because 2024 decided we have to throw the baby out with the bath water.
