It’s much more likely simply a legal CYA maneuver on the part of the media outlet vis-à-vis libel allegations, to not use the name of the crime to describe an act that no one’s yet been convicted of.

That's what the magic word "allegedly" is for. I'm not saying this person committed this crime, I'm saying that someone has said that this person did a thing that could reasonably meet the definition of this crime.
