Trump Issues Full Pardons for 5 People

Monday, 29 July 2019 02:03 PM EDT ET

President Donald Trump issued full pardons on Monday for five people who served sentences on charges including drug trafficking, weapons sales and illegal gambling, the White House said in a statement.

It cited the men's acceptance of responsibility for their crimes and the community service or charitable work each has performed since their release.

The individuals were John Richard Bubala, Roy Wayne McKeever, Rodney Takumi, Michael Tedesco, and Chalmer Lee Williams.

"After a careful review of the files of each of these individuals, President Trump has concluded that each are entirely deserving of Executive Clemency," the statement said.

The full pardon restores the men's right to vote and the right to bear arms.
