A drug kingpin convicted in the murder of a federal law enforcement officer had his life sentence commuted by President Donald Trump on January 20, 2021, the last day of Trump's term. Now, the man set free by Trump, Jaime A. Davidson, was accused by authorities of strangling his wife during a 2023 dispute, convicted by a jury of domestic violence, and, in July 2024, sentenced to three months in jail, according to court records obtained by Popular Information. Davidson's reoffence has not been previously reported.
John Duncan, the prosecutor who secured Davidson's conviction more than 30 years ago, expressed astonishment that he would be set free shortly after being contacted by the New York Times in 2021.
"If you ask me for a list of people who nobody should give a presidential commutation to, Davidson would pretty much be at the top of the list," the prosecutor said at the time.
