California's governor has pardoned a woman sentenced to life for killing her pimp when she was 16 years old.
It’s the final step in an official redemption that has spanned more than a decade and three governors of both political parties.
By then Kruzan had become something of a cause célèbre for state lawmakers and reform groups seeking to soften harsh life sentences for those who committed their crimes as juveniles. The commutations give the inmates the chance to appear before a parole board that will decide if they are suitable for release.
Newsom also pardoned the 82-year-old Pachnowski, who now lives in Maryland. He pleaded guilty in 1967 in Orange County to a misdemeanor charge of soliciting a lewd act and was sentenced to 10 days in jail and three years of probation.
