Yes, he absolutely was. In 1962 Lincoln unconstitutionally suspended the writs of habeas corpus. These were rights guaranteed to all people by the constitution. Lincoln also declared marshall law and Lincoln waged war on 8 states because they choose to leave to the union that they voluntarily joined due to an over bearing federal government and outrageous taxes. The same reason the United States declared independence from England in 1776.

There is no substantial evidence to suggest that Abraham Lincoln was corrupt during his time as the 16th President of the United States. He is generally regarded as a man of honesty and integrity who led the country during a tumultuous period in its history.
