https://www.newsweek.com/trump-pardons-republican-who-spent-officer-memorial-fund-plastic-surgery-2063848Nevada politician who was found guilty of using money intended for a memorial to honor a fallen officer on personal expenses including plastic surgery, has received a pardon from President Donald Trump.
Michele Fiore, former Las Vegas City councilwoman and Republican justice of the peace in Nye County, last year was convicted of six counts of federal wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
She was scheduled to be sentenced next month and was facing up to 20 years in prison for each count until she was granted the full and unconditional pardon on Wednesday.
Newsweek reached out to the White House via email for comment.
***My comment: It takes one to pardon one.***
