(Washington, DC) December 1, 2024—The following is a statement released by civil right lawyer Ben Crump and political strategist Angela Rye about the announced pardon of Hunter Biden, by his father, President Joe Biden, regarding the urgent need to pardon Attorney Marilyn Mosby–who was targeted for prosecuting officers involved in the police killing of Freddie Gray.
“After learning about the pardon of Hunter Biden this evening, we want to remind President Biden that justice is still not served for so many in this country. There are thousands of people who have been wrongfully convicted and sit in federal prisons today. While Hunter Biden was selectively prosecuted, he’s not the only one.
“Marilyn Mosby is on house arrest right now with her law license hanging in the balance over purchasing property with her own money. Kim Gardner was forced into taking a plea deal for a $5000 expense that was approved in an ethics opinion. We welcome a conversation with President Biden to discuss ways to use his pardon power to free those “others” who deserve justice also.“
