I never once said it exonerated Muugen. See, my argument isn't Muugen must be town because of this. Just that, it makes little sense for him, buddied with Adam, to act in this way. I'm attacking the argument why he's scum, not defending him as being Town.
I see you're applying some ad hoc rationale, Ultra. The lynch redirect occurred before Muugen defended him in the Council Night chat - which is common sense, because Night comes after the lynch. Therefore, your argument here is invalid.
