"we" as in "a group of people not in a position to provide any evidence or investigate"?

Yes, absolutely, because all "we" would be adding to the conversation is speculation. No new information can be gained here.

Who said "we" were going to investigate or speculate?

There is a difference between a witch hunt and making sure underheard voices get attention.

I was suggesting "we" make sure these claims are not being ignored because they are against a public figure. The fact they are a public figure and "might get blackmailed all the time" doesn't somehow relieve a person of criticism. That "we" ensure the proper authorities and groups prioritize finding new information or investigate these claims instead of being swept under a rug.
