Pardons Undercut Courts in Georgia Says Judge Edwards
Judge PRICE EDWARDS argues executive clemency has repeatedly shortened sentences for murderers and other felons, citing pardons after years served or before terms end. He notes public officials and press undermine law by backing clemency and calls for stricter limits on pardons to restore respect for court judgments. He warns lawlessness spreads from cities like Savannah and Atlanta through travel, bars, and contraband sales.
