It's both generous and completely mundane to assume that had plato had access to better empirical data he wouldn't have gotten so much wrong, and could have seen past the biases of his own time in a great many regards.
Specifically in regards to cases of right and wrong, of "bad people living bad lives"...empirical data would go a long way towards helping something age better..as it's generations of empirical data that have caused us to change the way we think about right and wrong in the first place.
