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.
