22. Charges were dropped against nearly all of the almost 1,000 people detained.
The arrests should never have happened in the first place, particularly those of journalists covering the convention and police actions outside it. But it's tough to compare what happened there to what's happened to O'Keefe, because in O'Keefe's case, we're talking about his sentencing -- and most of the folks at the RNC convention were never sentenced to anything.
