I personally would consider working with someone who has acted inappropriately, if I thought they had something very useful to add to my specific research project.
I wouldn’t work with them if I thought association with them would lead to poor reception of my work or if their actions made me doubt their ability/knowledge.
EDIT: I simply feel trying to do the most good has to mean working with people who can best contribute to making that happen.
