Disagree. You can make your opinion and you can take your precautions. But unless you were not directly harmed you should not “say bad things about them”, as you put it, just because they are a suspect in a case.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Regardless of whether you "were not directly harmed" I don't see why someone should or shouldn't “say bad things about them."

Why shouldn't I express my opinion? Or are we in "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" territory?

I may be misunderstanding your point. If so, please do correct me. If not, I don't see why I (or anyone else) shouldn't express their opinion WRT anything.

What value that opinion may have can certainly be debated, but why should someone not express their opinion?
