It can be because the food they ate, though kosher in every aspect, was purchased with money earned dishonestly, and this contaminates the neshama like treif food.

The rambam said it too on his letter to a yemininte rav when he sent him his sefikos in emunah he told him to Chk the schochets knife because only MAchalos assoros can make you ask questions like that
similarly i heard a Rabbi say he heard from his rebbe, Rabbi Yaakov Kamenetzky that a school that gets funds dishonestly cannot be machanach its students in a proper way
