When the subject of pedophiles came up - I don't think we were talking about someone who was unjustly convicted due to mental incapacities, etc. I was focusing on the career (serial) pedophile, who's completely sane and aware in his mind.

If I talk about Charles Manson being evil because he killed people. It wouldn't be relevant to include in the conversation - an innocent person who was unjustly convicted of murder. We're talking about evil, not innocent or unjustly convicted people.
