WASHINGTON (CBS/CNN) — President Donald Trump commuted the sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, who is serving a life sentence for drug offenses.
Johnson's cause was championed by reality TV star Kim Kardashian West in a recent visit to the White House.
Johnson has already served 21 years of a life sentence after she was convicted on charges of conspiracy to possess cocaine and attempted possession of cocaine, according to the nonprofit Can-Do, which advocates for clemency for non-violent drug offenders.
She has been released from prison.
