Found this on amnesty international:

It seems that there were serious doubts as to his guilt, coerced witnesses and the like.

Wikipedia does a decent job of summarizing, although as always, the veracity of the information is only as good as the last person to edit:

Just got done reading this through a little while ago.

"When they took the 4th amendment away, I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs. When they took the 6th amendment away, I was quiet because I had never been arrested. When they took the 2nd amendment away, I was quiet because I didn't own a gun. Now they've taken away the 1st amendment, and all I can do is be quiet." -- Fred Albury
So today's it's a total stranger. Next week it may be a neighbor. Next month it may be a distant relative. Next year it may be a close family member.
