unimplicated
Free from suspicion
Unimplicated means not involved or entangled in something, especially something negative like a crime, scandal, or wrongdoing.
Someone who is unimplicated has no connection to the matter in question: She remained unimplicated in the fraud despite working in the same department.
The word often carries relief or exoneration—being clear of suspicion or blame.
