Original Note:
The legal definition of clemency includes many different forms of clemency. The senator’s use of term, and examples of prisoners crimes implies that the prisoners were pardoned and let out of prison. The president commuted their sentences to life w/o parole. https://www.justice.gov/pardon/legal-authority-governing-executive-clemency. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/23/us/politics/biden-commutes-37-death-sentences.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
