Like I said the facts are all gone.

Plenty of facts are still available. This didn't happen in ancient Mesopotamia. The trial lasted two and a half hours (jury selection took longer than the trial), his public defender attorney presented no defense and didn't even cross examine, the sole evidence provided was an alleged verbal confession (of which the prosecution presented two conflicting versions), the judge allowed speculation that he raped the corpses even though it was contrary to the medical examiners report.

All that considered, the kid got railroaded.
