@pluralistic Wow a lot of people in this thread deeply in love with the carceral state.
He was one of 1500 who had their sentence commuted. You think that there aren't others in that 1500 who committed something that would make you angry or you'd consider heinous? It's a commution, not a pardon, for people who've already been allowed home detention as part of the Covid response. If minor clemency for someone you'd consider a "Bad Guy" makes you angry fine, but think hard about if that also puts you firmly on the side of the industrial prison complex and (irony alert) the conditions that help make a "Cash for Kids" possible.
