Well that’s a fucking oops by Biden. Most of the clemencies on today’s list were ~1500 nonviolent drug offenders who deserved leniency. How the fuck did Conahan manage to slip in with them?
Behind the Bastards did a series on this guy. TL;DR the guy deserves a hell of a lot worse than life in prison.
Don’t call it an oops.
Biden is not Trump. He reads things before he signs them. For whatever reason, this was intentional.
Don’t call it an oops.
This was either a massive lapse of bureaucracy, or it was a massive lapse in judgement. Either way, in my opinion it is one of Biden’s biggest mistakes in his entire four years of governance.
Cash for kids? Someone’s gotta be out there to out compete Gaetz.
Like Joe is still in there.
So in 2011 Cohan was sentenced to 17 1/2 years for doing “Kids-for-Cash”, funneling juvenile defendants to two private, for-profit detention centers in exchange for $2.1 million in kickbacks. And now Biden pardons him…
Wow, I have seen a lot of interviews and media around Conahan’s conviction, and this guy is either the most stone cold child hating person I have ever
metheard about, or is somehow completely insane/psychopathic and 100% oblivious to that fact, and I guess his whole family too. What a disgrace to the many, many victims he made.
