Sure. CLinton pardoned a lot of his rich buddies just before he left office, but let Leonard Pelletier to rot, despite public outcry. Justice in America?????

Clinton pardoned over 200 Felons at the end of his term. To include a Convicted Child Molester.
Carter also Pardoned a Convicted Child Molester...
Sad...
