Yes, there was lots. My problem isn’t his guilt, it’s his sentence. He is serving the time of someone guilty of the crimes they wanted to try him on but either couldn’t prove or didn’t have laws for yet, not the one they could get him on. They used to make an example.

That isn’t proof.
A lawyer presented evidence, a jury convicted him, and a judge accepted the verdict. Do you not understand how that works?
There were crooked cops involved in that "proof", and as you said yourself, they were set on taking him out no matter what. There is nothing justice about that.
Spend some time in the court system or around groups who are in the court system and you'll find out how corrupt everything is - including the reasoning in your comment.
