President Joe Biden has granted the first three pardons of his term and also commuted the sentences of 75 others for nonviolent, drug-related convictions.
The White House announced the clemencies Tuesday as it launched a series of job training and reentry programs for those in prison or recently released.
On Wednesday, KPRC 2 spoke with Quang Nguyen who had no idea his name was on the White House’s list of sentences that were commuted. Since 2020, Nguyen has been serving time in home confinement after being granted release and a reduced sentence due to health issues and the COVID-19 pandemic.
