So, where's the railroad job? He recorded at least one of his crimes ... and you're arguing that he got pushed into a plea deal?
Image files set aside -- after all, that conviction is not what's under discussion here -- we not only have his admission of culpability, but a video recording of his guilt ... and you're still gonna say the system screwed him?

He should have gone to court and made the State prove all of the elements of the crimes. If he's actually guilty as he has pled to being then there's no reason not to admit the details.
The details were aired ... only not by him. He had every opportunity in his trial to take the stand if he so desired. For reasons of his own, he deided not to do so, and instead pled guilty.
Would you plead guilty to false charges? Would you air out the details of your own horrid crimes?
You look like an armchair quarterback to me. You've gone from arguing presumption of innocence to his videotaped guilt in, oh, one post ... but still try to rescue your narrative.
