US President Joe Biden has granted pull pardons to six individuals before the end of the year, with the White House saying that “he is a believer in second chances”.
An 80-year-old woman who was convicted of murder in the second-degree while armed for killing her husband is among those pardoned ones, according to a list released by the White House on Friday.
Five others pardoned individuals served their sentences for drug and alcohol related crimes.
Biden used his clemency power for the third time this year. He pardoned thousands of individuals convicted of simple marijuana possession in October.
