9 people were granted commutation at yesterday’s public hearing. We are saddened that Terri Harper pictured in beaded portrait above only recieved one vote by @johnfetterman - she received 4 votes for her merit review. So curious what happened to those other 3 votes? What happened at the personal interview or proceedings to sway the votes? The board of pardons is not required to give a written reason for denial, leaving applicants and supports with many questions. Perhaps that can be another point of positive change in the process that the lt. governor can influence. ...... Amistad Law Project @amistadlaw live tweeted the session and their take away was as follows (quotes): Commutation Recommend: 9 Commutation Deneid: 11 Applications Held Under Advisement: 4 Application Withdrawn: 1. 1. Gervin Deaton-unanimous vote! James Inge- James case was out under advisement to be reviewed at a later date Antonio Mazzuca-unanimous vote Bruce Norris- put under advisement Thomas Schilk- unanimous no vote. Tom will remains in prison David Sheppard Jr-unanimous vote! 2. David Moore- unanimous yes Clarence Robinson- held for advisement Eugene Grannison-unanimous yes Robert Carter- unanimous no Victor Ogden-unanimous no 3. CharlesGoldblum- unanimous yes Michael Helwig-unanimous no Richard Pacell-unanimous no Oscar Pinto-unanimous yes Larry Smalls- 3-2 vote with Shapiro and Gubernick vote, application denied. 4. Terri-Joell Harper-1-4 with only Fetterman voting for. Denied Oliver Macklin-Withdrew his application James Morris-3-2 vote, denied Mageline Stewart-unanimous yes Raymond Johnson-unanimous yes 5. Henrietta Harris- continues to be held under advisement Daniel Cummings-denied Carlo Estrella-denied Andre Wright-denied
