As of right now, he *is* innocent.
Ok. if he didn't do it. means that he didn't do it. at least until it can be proved that he did do it. because as of right now he didn't do it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying "if he is innocent of whatever" in relation to anything and anyone.
it just means "if he didn't do whatever"
