Moreover, future president John Adams defended the men of the 29th regiment in a Boston court. Two of them were found guilty of manslaughter, and the rest were found not guilty.
His argument was super fucked up, too. He said a bunch of really racist stuff. Heard he got a lot more tolerant as he got older, one of the few presidents whose entire life was so completely documented via letters and journals.
The Boston Massacre likely was a legitimate case of the soldiers feeding for their lives and acting in self-defense in the middle of an angry mob that was attacking them.
And the person who successfully defended the British soldiers in Court was John Adams, who was no monarchist. He was later the leading figure in declaring independence and was the second President of the United States.
