A governor's lawyer, Jerry Brown, on Friday asked the country's Supreme Court to ask if former Senator, Senator Rod Wright, should be pardoned for his 2014 crime convictions, accused of election fraud and perjury to lie about life in his district.
"The crimes for which Senator Wright was convicted – perjury, false nomination, and fraudulent voting – were non-violent in nature," Krause wrote to the Supreme Court. "In addition, Senator Wright has devoted much of his life to the public service, including six years in the State Senate of California and six years in the California Assembly. Since his conviction, Senator Wright has been employed as a consultant in government affairs and is an adjunct professor. "
