List of people pardoned by George W. Bush
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a partial list of people pardoned by George W. Bush. As of June 29, 2007,[1] President George W. Bush had issued 113 presidential pardons to people who have served their entire sentence, and has commuted in addition the sentences of three people.[2] In addition, Bush commuted an additional sentence on July 2, 2007. In this context, a pardon means an executive order vacating a conviction for which the sentence has already been served, thereby eliminating the collateral effects of the conviction, while a commutation means a mitigation of the sentence of someone currently serving a sentence for a crime pursuant to a conviction.
This list is a subset of the list of people pardoned by a United States president. The order is alphabetical, the year is the date of conviction.
