Columbus Dispatch:

“President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates on Monday morning, including a man convicted of killing a Columbus police officer during a 2005 robbery.

The 37 people will have their death sentences reclassified from execution to life without parole, according to a statement issued by the White House. One of them is Daryl Lawrence, who was sentenced to death in the killing of Columbus police officer Bryan Hurst.“[/quote]

Commuted is not a pardon. [/quote]

It's just as bad. If you let a rapist or murderer out, they can commit more rape and murder. That's a bigger concern than whether they technically have a commutation or a pardon which may impact administrative things like whether they can vote.[/quote]

Life without parole.

Read better.[/quote]

You should learn to read. The FBI killer us heading home.[/quote]

He's heading home to house arrest.  He should have been granted parole years ago.  Or pardon.  [/quote]

He killed two fbi killers and you think it’s appropriate for him to be home.

You have zero moral credibility here.

Doubtful. You sound like you know nothing about this case.

The bullets don’t match the gun, for starters.[/quote]

Parole board heard all this and refused parole as recently as June.

Obama declined a pardon too, in 2017.

Former FBI director Wray:

Wray said Peliter fled to Canada after he "executed" the two agents "at close range." Peltier was arrested in Alberta in 1976, before standing trial for the murders.

"In the aftermath of the murders, Peltier engaged in a violent flight from justice, firing shots at police officers as he eluded arrest and burglarizing a home," Wary wrote. "Following his apprehension months later in Canada, Peltier said that if he had known law enforcement officers were approaching, he would have "blow[n] [them] out of [their] shoes."

After his trial and conviction for first-degree murder, Peltier participated in a violent escape from federal prison, during which he and others opened fire on prison employees.”

His lawyer, who has also served as UD District Judge and Chief Judge in Tennessee, said:

Leonard did not shoot the agents, and the FBI knew this but withheld evidence. The court of appeals acknowledged this but couldn't overturn the conviction due to legal standards. Judge Heaney, who wrote the opinion, later supported clemency for Leonard. Now, 38 of Judge Heaney's former clerks support parole for Leonard, including three who worked on his case. The government admits they don't know who killed the agents, but it wasn't Leonard. It's time to release Leonard and start the healing process.[/quote]
