I know what kind of person Manuel de la Rocha was. I am also very acutely aware of who he is in the present. I will never defend who he was, but I will defend who he is right now. Yes, I tend to be protective of him. No, that is not why I bothered to e-mail you.

Adrienne said you went to her to try to catch Manuel in an attempt to rape her. I'm sure you can gather the sort of impression that phrasing presents. I do not know you well enough to assume whether that impression is correct or her poor phrasing. In order to not jump to incorrect conclusions I thought it better to contact you, but I didn't feel it was urgent or important enough at this moment in time to warrant requesting a meeting with you to have the discussion.

You made me an offer of a job. It is an offer I have been very seriously considering since. It is, however, a job which will put my life on the line at times and the character of the person I work for becomes very important to me under such circumstances. It is a fact that I hope you can appreciate. I did not want to consider the offer under an incorrect impression given by someone else relating information poorly.

I would assume you'd have more tact and discretion than her wording suggested, but I find it is safer to admit ignorance and request clarification than to make an assumption either way.
