I won't count John Wetteland, accused three times -- but not convicted. Nor will I count Pete Rose or Roger Clemens. I didn't realize that the standard for posting is statistical robustness. If so, my bad.

Yes it is the standard. If you're going to post that X group has a problem with being pedophiles, that group better turn out to be statistically prone to that charge. When you say a group or organization has a problem with being pedophiles, obviously that should be a statistically valid claim. That's an extremely serious charge, why shouldn't the claim be statistically robust? A few names out of many thousands to paint MLB as having a pedo problem is pretty weird and so far out of left field nobody saw that ball coming.
