Okay.

So, what about the others? Putting forth several (dozens?) cases where solitary was wrongly imposed does in no way make that case for the majority, now does it?

Given that logic, you could make the argument for a single incident of <pick a color> person killing a <pick a different color> person to mean that all <pick a color> people are raving racist murderers.

Personally, I'm not in favour of prison for violent offenders.
