approval. generally however, the politics of that decision are terrifying for governors who don t want to be attacked for being soft on crime. the end result is that they vastly underuse their ability to pardon folks. so now comes along the strange case of matt bevan. he s the former kentucky governor who also seems to have gone about his mass pardons and commutations in a way designed to produce the worst kind of discrediting of it project. after losing his re-election last month bevan spent his lame duck week pardoning more than 600 people. it made it controversial the lack of publicly stated rationale from the outgoing governor and one of the convicted murderers pardoned was the brother of a man who had helped a campaign fund-raiser for bevan. something that sparked the interest of the fbi. everything bevan has done to defend decisions has been frankly a pr disaster including this when he was asked during a radio interview about a child
