I don't think anybody does. Miller shouldn't have been selected in the first place, and the Coyotes don't get off the hook just because they have renounced the rights now ... the damage has already been done.
The Coyotes don't look good in any of this, and it's their own fault. They pretty much hoped to sweep Millers story under the carpet and that no one would give a ####, but that's obviously not what happened. I don't see how this selection could have paid off under any circumstances, it'd have been different if Miller had actually shown genuine remorse and taken action to make up for it. Then they could have taken control of the narrative and painted this as a "look, this is a kid who made a mistake and has earned a second chance" moment, and reactions would have probably been different.
