Was he convicted of breaking his parole or robbing a store?

Is life for robbing a store normal?
Maybe it is, but that isn't really the point. They are trying to make it out like all the guy did was smoked a joint and he being a poor black guy was sentanced to life.

I'm not saying life was fair in this case, but the guy did much more than to "just samoke a joint".
