I don't think anyone serious (anyone besides random message-board a**holes, anyway) has ever actually 'accused' Jordan.
But she'll have a cloud of suspicion over her head all her life, and that's mostly *her* fault --because she *chose* to go with the guy who's rightly had a cloud of suspicion over his head his whole freaking life. (And let's face it, it's a lot *more* than just a cloud of suspicion at this point.)
And now, when she had a chance to dissipate that cloud substantially, she's chosen instead to make it twice as bad, by hooking up with someone else who's *also*, rightly, got a dark could over her head.
(My God, just the revelation of how Paula thuggishly threatened that reporter --all by itself-- should make anyone sane *run* in the other direction,... and now Jordan has *chosen* to tie herself to *that*. )
If she cares even the slightest bit about her reputation, image, and place in the history of the sport (and I'd sure think she does --at least a little), she just doubled down on stupid.
And she'll have to live with the consequences the rest of her life.
And that's sad.
