President Donald Trump announced Thursday Alice Johnson would serve as his new “pardon czar.”
Johnson, who was pardoned by Trump during his first term in office for a non-violent drug offense, will be responsible for scouring the criminal justice system and looking for people who may be the victims of injustice.
President Trump in recent days also shut down the National Law Enforcement Accountability Database, which tracked police accountability.
The database, which kept nearly 5,000 records of misconduct related to federal law enforcement officials, initially launched in 2023 under President Joe Biden but was decommissioned when President Trump revoked the former President’s executive order.
