But this time around, Lee specifically noted that he chose not to shorten any sentences 69制片厂制作传媒� known as commutations 69制片厂制作传媒� in his yearly announcement of clemency actions around Christmas. He aimed to distance his approach from Biden69制片厂制作传媒檚, saying the people he pardoned in Tennessee have finished their sentences and rejoined their communities, and each had a recommendation from the state Board of Parole. Lee has issued seven commutations since taking office in 2019.

Last week, Biden commuted the sentences of roughly 1,500 people who were released from prison and placed on home confinement during the coronavirus pandemic and pardoned 39 Americans convicted of nonviolent crimes, marking the largest single-day act of clemency in modern history. Some of the clemency actions drew community backlash. The clemency push followed a broad pardon for the Democrat69制片厂制作传媒檚 son Hunter, who has been convicted of federal felony gun and tax crimes.

69制片厂制作传媒淭hese are very different individuals than many of the individuals whose sentences were commuted in the previous federal clemency grant,69制片厂制作传媒� Lee told reporters.

In Tennessee, a pardon serves as a statement of forgiveness to someone who has completed their prison sentence and are no longer incarcerated, while commutation shortens a sentence but lets the conviction stand. Lee has only issued one exoneration while in office, in which the governor declares that the applicant didn69制片厂制作传媒檛 commit the crime. Other governors are likewise issuing acts of clemency around the holidays.

President-elect Donald Trump, whom Lee supports, has drawn scrutiny for clemency actions as well 69制片厂制作传媒� helping a slate of well-connected people in his first term, and promising to start his next administration with pardons for people who were arrested for their role in the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The governor69制片厂制作传媒檚 office said none of the people he pardoned Friday have had an active criminal sentence for at least five years, including probation or parole.

Lee highlighted several cases, including that of Lanesha Faye Brown. Lee said Brown was convicted of attempted second-degree murder in 1998 at 13 years old after she had been bullied at school and, in one circumstance, tried to retaliate with a small knife for an art class project when a bully attacked her.

He said she now has been married for 15 years, earned an associate69制片厂制作传媒檚 degree, and has worked at a Nashville hotel.

She was once fired because of a background check, but her hotel coworkers and manager rallied to get her rehired, Lee said.
