One in three Americans have a criminal record. Will these five individuals be given mercy?
How long is enough time to pay the price for one's crimes? Five formerly-incarcerated individuals have served their time and now want to rebuild their lives -- what's stopping them is their criminal record. A potential path to redemption comes from the power of a pardon. The pardons and commutations process is typically slow and costly across the US, but one state is trying to change that.
