This is misinformation. Jin wasn’t part of the 39 pardoned or 1500 commuted on December 12th Instead, his pardon was commuted as part of a prisoner swap with China in November. In exchange for his and two other prisoner‘s release, three imprisoned Americans were freed. https://www.ft.com/content/3378545d-d1bc-4fe6-880c-69ff5c649a05 https://www.newsweek.com/biden-rebuked-granting-clemency-man-caught-child-porn-2000149 https://www.justice.gov/d9/2024-11/jin_signed_warrant.pdf
