  • Two South Carolina women were among 39 pardons; According to the White House, the single-day act of clemency was the largest in modern history

President Joe Biden has commuted the sentences of 21 individuals from South Carolina, all of whom were convicted of non-violent drug offenses. These commutations are part of a broader initiative to address sentencing disparities and promote rehabilitation over incarceration for low-level drug crimes. The individuals affected by this decision will have their sentences reduced, with some being released as early as June 30, 2023. The move reflects Biden's commitment to criminal justice reform, focusing on second chances for those who have shown a commitment to rehabilitation and pose no threat to public safety. The commutations do not erase the convictions but shorten the time these individuals must serve in prison.
