Pardon Me Understanding Pennsylvania's Clemency Process

Join FAMM for a conversation with new Pennsylvania Board of Pardons Secretary Celeste Trusty. Learn about Secretary Trusty's goals and how clemency (including pardons and commutations) works in Pennsylvania. Clemency is the only hope of relief for people serving very long and life sentences. Expanding clemency is a pillar of FAMM's Second Chance Agenda – address injustice, release people, and support second chances.

Dear Pennsylvania Governor,
We beg you, PLEASE correct this SEVERE sentencing disparity. Please grant lesser conviction with time served to Mike Swift. The victim's widow and children continue to support Mike Swift's Innocence of First-Degree Murder. And, the victim's family currently state he is long overdue for Freedom. Over 30 years later. Proof of guilt of First-Degree murder--BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT-- was never established. Please grant lesser degree with time served. We beg you. Mike did not take a life. Please allow Justice Over Pride. We beg. #ClemencyMike

Phone calls and letters are 1990s. Not to mention responding to them takes time away from you being able to focus on the applications. An online applicant portal is a must. It would save a lot of time for everyone all around.
