INNOCENT...BUT FOUND GUILTY.

Peter Reilly--was convicted of manslaughter.

Leonard Peltier's ordeal inspired a movie

Joe Hill--was executed for murder.

Mary Surratt--was put to death for her involvement in Abraham Lincoln's assassination.

Johnson Chestnut Whittaker---was expelled from West Point for a racist attack on himself!

Each of these people were wrongly convicted of a serious crime. As a result they suffered....some even died. These historical cases sadly show that justice is NOT always served.
