He is an innocent man. His mother and sister were both convicted as well, later having their's overturned. This was a political witchhunt. Unless you read the Wall Street Journal, you will never hear about this case.

Something else should be mentioned; the guy who railroaded Amirault is a political liberal by the name of Scott Harshbarger. He was Mass. DA at the time, and made the cynical but correct political judgement that by joining in a feminist witch-hunt, he could both appeal to the left and appear 'tough on crime'. He's now President of Common Cause and a major campaigner for 'Campaign Finance Reform'. Another one of McCain's good buddies.
