Interesting statistics. I’m an American, and out of everyone I’ve personally ever known to have gone to jail, one was for rape, another for methamphetamine production, drunk driving, financial crimes. They were all white, and many of them were offered plea bargains and accepted instead of a full trial. Is the plea bargain part of your “haven’t been convicted of a crime?” I don’t personally know of anyone who’s been in jail for a single day that wasn’t guilty.

I don’t question the statistic of 50% of the prison population being black, yet only being 10% of population. I also expect the majority in that prison demographic to be equally as guilty as the criminals I know.

I doubt you’ll find an American who personally knows 10 people that are locked up, and of those, 8 who were falsely imprisoned.

You might find an American who knows 100 people who are locked up, and 1 was possibly falsely imprisoned.
