If escaping danger means teaming up with a social pariah, would you?

You were on a sightseeing excursion by small plane (even if you are afraid to fly like I, go with it), gunfire from the jungle below disables the plane. The pilot is able to make a reasonably soft crash landing but not everyone on the plane survives. You are well, just a few scratches. A young very petite woman also made it through mostly unscathed, the pilot, with a broken arm. The only other survivors are an old man with lung problems and who lost his wife in the crash, and a strapping man late 20s to early 30s, with just cuts and bruises. However, you recognize him from the news as being released from prison four months ago for sleeping with his daughter and a foster child. The pilot says there is help in a village 8 or so mile from where you crashed. The idea is to get to the village, get help, and do so before dark or before who was shooting finds the plane. The going will be hard slog through the jungle, marches, steep rocky terrain. Knowing time is of the essence, and the trip will be physically demanding, and if you run into who was shooting you might have to defend yourself, who do you take? Do you take who you like even if they will slow you down, and can’t aid in defense, or do you take someone who is a societal outcast but might help in the success of saving everyone?
