Donald Trump has commuted the sentence of Alice Marie Johnson after Kim Kardashian visit.
Via USA Today:
President Trump granted clemency Wednesday to a Tennessee grandmother serving a life sentence for cocaine trafficking — after hearing a plea from reality television star Kim Kardashian West in an Oval Office meeting.
Alice Marie Johnson, who celebrated her 63rd birthday last week, had her life sentence commuted after 22 years, said Shawn Holley, the lawyer for Kardashian West who helped prepare the case for clemency. The terms of the clemency were not immediately known.
Johnson was convicted in 1996 of five counts of drug trafficking and one count of money laundering and sentenced to life in prison — despite the fact that it was her first offense.
