It's not like the US has some kind of history of falsely imprisoning people of colour based on flimsy or fabricated evidence.

We can't blindly trust courts. The fact that a court convicted someone is not proof that someone is guilty or innocent. You could consider it an argument for someone's guilt/innocence, but not irrefutable proof.

Critical thinking matters. I don't know if this guy is guilty or not, and I don't think anyone can be 100% sure for this particular case.
