Why were the executions of Sacco Vanzetti controversial?

Some felt that Sacco and Vanzetti were convicted because of anti-immigrant bias present in the US at the time. They were not helped by their self-identification as anarchists, such groups having committed many violent acts against governments in Europe, and some in the US. Evidence that might not have seemed convincing in other cases was enough to convict them of a capital crime. It should also be noted that even some people who agreed with the guilty verdict were not comfortable having anyone put to death; those people believed Sacco and Vanzetti should have received life in prison rather than the death penalty.
