For the rest of this month, people with non-violent cannabis convictions can apply for clemency through the “Marijuana Pardon Project.” But those charges generally come compounded with a slew of other ones. So realistically, how many people are actually going to benefit? City Cast Pittsburgh & City Cast Philly are joining forces to talk through the loopholes and how it could help at least a few thousand deserving Pennsylvanians. We’re joined by criminal defense attorney Patrick Nightingale, who has some statewide perspective on the pardoning project.
You can find information on the “Marijuana Pardon Project” here: https://www.pa.gov/guides/mj-pardon/
And you can apply for a pardon now through September 30th here: https://mjpardon.pa.gov
