Can you point to any trial that wasn't fair in the US in recent history?

I have no particular viewpoint regarding Assange, but depending on your understanding of "fair", there are probably many whose fairness can be questioned. Partiality of judges, imbalance of legal team budgets, etc. Look at any case brought up by a patent troll against a small/medium business.

One case that personally always bothers me was regarding the murder of Philando Castile.

I’ll narrow my statement down to fair for the defendant.
