Nationally, the Restoration Of Rights Project tracks the frequency of pardons granted by each state.
The project advocates for more pardons, rating Michigan in the bottom fourth of states granting them.
“It really doesn’t stack up compared to the number of people who are incarcerated in Michigan under their state criminal charges,” Michigan State University law professor Quinn Yeargain said. “It’s a drop in the bucket.”
One Detroit contributor Mario Bueno joined One Detroit Senior Producer Bill Kubota to examine pardons in Michigan.
They hear from Pete Martel, who earned his law degree after serving time in prison, and Michigan Supreme Court Justice Richard Bernstein whose thoughts on second chances for returning citizens have changed in recent years.
