Original Note:
President Abraham Lincoln personally reviewed the convictions of the Dakota men. In the end, Lincoln commuted all but 39 of the 300 death sentences for crimes ranging from rape to murder, deciding only the Dakota involved in civilian massacres should be executed. https://cla.umn.edu/chgs/holocaust-genocide-education/resource-guides/us-dakota-war-1862
