nonimplicated
Free from suspicion
Nonimplicated describes someone or something not involved in or connected to a wrongdoing, crime, or suspicious activity.
The term appears most often in legal, investigative, or journalistic contexts where it's necessary to distinguish those who are under suspicion from those who are not: The nonimplicated employees were allowed to return to work while the investigation continued.
It functions as the straightforward negation of implicated.
