From a technical standpoint he was railroaded into prison at the bidding of Henry Kissinger and the Soviet Union.  In real terms he was convicted by the disinterest of the society with its own pain, and its refusal to acknowledge its development potential.  By this refusal, mankind has literally convicted and doomed itself.  As of this writing, the nuclear weapons threat is as ominous as it has ever been, if not more so.  Most of the monster weapons of the Cold War period still exist.  They are currently maintained under austerity conditions against the background of a disintegrating world-financial system, with a large portion being maintained in a country that is physically disintegrating towards civil war and a growing hatred of the West.  Neither has mankind even begun to think about in earnest to develop an active defense system against these weapons, or to cooperate in removing them.  For as long as inflicting injury is on the global agenda, which the Empire promotes with all its might, and world-wide economic development is actively prevented, neither of these options can be implemented.

Another example of Lyndon LaRouche's involvement to aid humanity took shape at the time when the Soviet empire collapsed.  Even in the darkness of his prison cell he developed a plan by which the defeat of the Soviet Empire could be turned into a golden opportunity to create the most far reaching economic development project in history.   This plan would uplift the entire Eurasian continent into an era of never before realized prosperity which would invariably uplift the entire world.  The industrial engine to start such a vast development was recognized to exist ready made in the central regions of western Europe.  Here, the British Empire stepped in, as it stepped in the last time that such a development scheme was proposed in the late 1800s.  This time the British Empire succeeded in destroying this awesome development potential by throwing the entire continent into a dark age under its IMF's dictated brutal austerity demands.  Today, the Russian economy, which would have been a powerful development contributor, lies in ruins, and the West European economies that could have provided the driving force of this development, have been reduced to beggars by the same IMF austerity demands.  Thus, the brightest development opportunity in history was prevented, and the continental scene was turned into a nightmare of social chaos and starvation.

Being locked up in jail, as Lyndon LaRouche was at the time, he lacked the freedom to promote his vital idea.  As a consequence of this missed opportunity fascism has gained the upper hand throughout much of the affected region.
