We are launching this clemency initiative in order to quickly and effectively identify appropriate candidates, candidates who have a clean prison record, do not present a threat to public safety, and were sentenced under out-of-date laws that have since been changed, and are no longer seen as appropriate, Deputy Attorney General James Cole said at a news conference. It saddens me that budget concerns ultimately tipped the balance in favor of #sentencingreform, but Im glad it is finally happening. #MandatoryMinimum sentencing doesnt work, never has and never will. With this move towards clemency reform, Americas prison system may experience some of the relief it so desperately needs. If someone you love is serving a prison sentence, please contact us for a free consultation. We will discuss the options available to you for modification of your loved ones sentence. If you or someone you love is still living under the stigma of a criminal conviction, call our office to schedule a consultation to discuss your options for sealing your criminal record, #expungment or #executiveclemency. cnn.it/1fytgU4
