If there is statistical data which shows that racial differences occur for IDENTICLE crimes where the perps also have identical prior arrest records, please supply it! Given that it seems black looking Americans commit much more crime per capita than whites it stands to reason black looking perps might well receive stiffer sentences due to their having lengthier prior arrest/criminality records, for example.
Inferring racism seems VERY unwise where there is no of evidence of racist views held by the accused individual, so yes to that.
