Pardons: Justice, Mercy, and the Public Interest Book

Since Pilate freed Barabbas, pardons have been both problematic and controversial. In a volume richly illustrated with stories of pardons--some scandalous or inspiring, others funny or tragic--Kathleen Dean Moore examines the philosophy of pardons from the time when James II sold pardons for two shillings, through the debates of the Founding Fathers over the pardoning power, to the Reagan administration when the number of pardons hit an all-time low. Moore provides a thoughtful analysis of the moral justification of pardons and concludes with a set of recommendations for the reform of presidential pardoning practices.Read More
