@Liotta3Liotta: “Unfortunately it is a state matter and Trump, unfortunately, cannot pardon her.”

@PassportSoul: “She was the first person I thought of when Trump won. I pray he pardons her on Day 1. I also pray for reform within our justice system so the government cannot weaponize it ever again, regardless of who holds power. This poor family has suffered so much.’
