Alice Johnson receives a pardon from President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, Aug. 28, 2020.
Johnson, a criminal justice reform activist whom he had granted clemency two years before, has been heavily featured by the president's re-election campaign. She had served 21 years of a life sentence for for a first-time, nonviolent offence connected to a role she played in a cocaine distribution ring.
The 65-year-old first came to the president's attention thanks to the celebrity advocacy of reality TV star Kim Kardashian West before he commuted Johnson's sentence in June 2018. Kardashian West visited the White House to make a personal appeal to the president for Johsnon’s release.

Just before signing the pardon in the Oval Office Friday, Trump mentioned her attendance at his party's political convention the night before, when he accepted the GOP nomination for president.
"We are giving Alice a full pardon," Trump said. "I just told her. We didn't even discuss it. We just -- you were out there, I saw you in the audience last night, and I asked the folks if you could bring Alice over. We're going to give a full pardon. We're going to do it right now."
The night before, in a speech that aired at the GOP convention, Johnson had praised Trump and thanked him for commuting her sentence. She attended the president's Thursday night acceptance speech in person on the grounds of the White House.
