Fact is the guy committed a crime with obvious intention to profit. You can rationalize all you wish. He's going to do the time.
It does sound like he got a bit of a rough deal which means he should have spent some of the loot on better counsel.
In the post 9/11 / Bush quasi Autocracy one should be well aware that this will be likely be the norm in the US of A.
Cheers!
