President Joe Biden is commemorating Second Chance Month by announcing the first pardons and commutations of his administration.
Abraham Bolden, an 86-year-old former Secret Service agent who maintains he was wrongly convicted of trying to sell a copy of a Secret Service file, Betty Jo Bogans, a 51-year-old first-time offender who served seven years in prison for transporting crack cocaine for her boyfriend and his accomplice, and Dexter Jackson, a 52-year-old man who allowed marijuana dealers to meet buyers in his pool hall, were the three former inmates pardoned of their crimes, according to the White House.
