Tennessee Governor Bill Lee pardoned 43 individuals, nearly doubling his previous yearly total.
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee pardoned 43 individuals who have completed their sentences, marking nearly double his previous yearly total. This move is notably different from President Biden's recent commutations, which shortened sentences for over 1,500 inmates. Lee's pardons apply only to those who have been out of prison for at least five years and have shown exemplary behavior, with each receiving a recommendation from the state Board of Parole.
