Well that’s a fucking oops by Biden. Most of the clemencies on today’s list were ~1500 nonviolent drug offenders who deserved leniency. How the fuck did Conahan manage to slip in with them?
Behind the Bastards did a series on this guy. TL;DR the guy deserves a hell of a lot worse than life in prison.
1,500 cases is a lot of reading. I don’t think Biden read all of those. He has someone do it for him. While I am not saying this it what happened because I have absolutely no evidence, it’s possible that someone in his administration that setup these commutations slipped the judge in as a favor.
This was either a massive lapse of bureaucracy, or it was a massive lapse in judgement. Either way, in my opinion it is one of Biden’s biggest mistakes in his entire four years of governance.

Yeah, no one person read and looked into to that many people. 100% someone in the Biden administration clerked for the guy or something.

Cash for kids? Someone’s gotta be out there to out compete Gaetz.
Like Joe is still in there.
