Trump pardons Florida fraudster after commuting her sentence during his first term

AI Summary

short article 2 min

Donald Trump issued a pardon to Adriana Camberos, a Florida woman previously convicted of fraud, after having commuted her sentence in 2021 for a similar crime involving the fraudulent resale of 5-Hour Energy drinks. In 2024, Camberos and her brother were convicted again for defrauding manufacturers by falsely claiming discounted goods were for export or restricted sales, then selling them at higher prices in the US. Camberos was among 13 pardons and eight commutations issued on Thursday. Other pardons included the father of a major Trump super PAC donor and former Puerto Rican governor Wanda Vázquez. On Friday, Trump also pardoned Terren Peizer, convicted of insider trading. These clemencies are part of a broader pattern during Trump's second term, often targeting cases previously highlighted by federal prosecutors.
