I think so, too. At least, if Plato and Xenophon are to be trusted.
The accusations are rather fishy; they boil down to "he doesn't pay respect to the sacred!" on one side and "won't you think on the children?" at the other. They sound like the vague stuff that still leaves people angry and irrational. Couple that with Socrates standing up against the thirty tyrants, five years before and pissing people left and right with his "you aren't as smart as you think that you are", and the whole thing feels like a petty revenge.
