Depends on whether you knew the circumstances of the dishonor.

What about his wife, sons, partners, etc? Didn't one of the sons blow the whistle when he heard of the dishonor? I would argue it depends on knowledge of the crime.

PS I like Bujod's work a lot but I sometimes think she gives away her Christian background. Not that that's bad, it's just kinda obvious to me. Then again, I find Ken McLeod's work to be very Scottish-socialist. Maybe that's just me.
