Can someone explain to me why Trump pardoned that POS?

I mean the Occam Razon scenario is that Trump just took bribes in exchange for pardons, but that will quickly be shot down as an smear on Trump.

So what exactly motivated Trump to issue this pardon?

Maybe because trump is a piece of shit? I read the article. He set up the robbery but didn’t pull the trigger. I have no idea why he would choose to pardon this guy. It was a chicken shit move on his last day in office. To sum up my comments, fuxk trump. Fuck harris/walz as well. They all suck tremendously

Not sure, but this guy's attorney is also Donald Trump Jr's attorney:


Davidson circumvented the traditional process for seeking pardons to lobby Trump directly for his release.

"In the waning days of Trump's presidency, Davidson eschewed the Office of the Pardon Attorney and sought relief directly from Trump," writes Legum. "Davidson's attorney Betty Schein had deep connections to the Trump White House. Schein and her husband, Alan Futerfas, represented people associated with the Trump Organization, including Donald Trump Jr."
 
It was a dumbass move. Hell pardoning anyone is a dumb idea. Odds are one or two are going to come back to bite you in the ass.
 
That guy never killed anybody though. They just threw the book at him because he was indirectly involved in the killing of an undercover officer, allegedly planning a robbery of a rival drug gang that went wrong, which the cop unfortunately got involved with.

Yeah he seems like a swell guy

Davidson had planned the robbery and given the killer a gun. He was not present when Howard was killed, but prosecutors argued that Howard's death was a reasonably foreseeable consequence of the robbery.

Never said he was a swell guy but it's not like he gave the guy a gun and told him to go murder the undercover cop. The cop, due to the nature of his work, just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and since they couldn't give the killer life, due to being underage, they threw the book at everyone and everybody else that was in some way involved in the robbery.

The actual killer has already been released over a decade ago.

In the US felony murder means that someone died in the commission of a felony. Theoretically the undercover cop could have shot the robber to death and this guy could have still been charged with murder. It is not an unusual occurrence.

Agreed but I think it's a bit misleading to call him an outright cop killer. He was not present at the crime scene nor did he give an order to kill a cop. It happened because some thugs, who were supposed to rob another gang of thugs, decided to shoot it out instead. Not that I have any sympathy for this guy whatsoever but we also have to remember that this was New York in the 90's, you didn't get to fuck with cops and get away with it. Shit went bad, one of their guys got shot, and they wanted to bust everybody's ass over that. I don't know all the details about the case but let's just say it wouldn't surprise me if his name was thrown on the list just to get him off the streets.

Guy must have had a shit lawyer if he went from a "name thrown on the list" to the guy convicted of murdering a cop because he planned the robbery and provided the gun.

Upon further reading it seems that the shooter implicated the dude that got released as the planner of the robbery, but later recanted that confession, and then changed his mind again.

According to this article, Trump may have pardoned him to score some points with celebrities:

 
Like most of Trumps pardons, he either got paid for the pardon on they helped him get elected.
Imagine having build the wall as your campaign slogan and then you pardon a guy in Gin Blossoms Bannon who stole money from a build a wall charity. Trump knows the diehards will support him no matter what he does. So he can lie or do contradictory shit all them time and his base has been programmed to defend the old ass clown at all costs.
 
First off, dude didn’t do the killing, and i know in a felon, you can get charged, but its a bit of a stretch in this scenario.

Secondly, considering the circumstances, dude did 29 years, he did more than his time. The median time served for murder/non negligent manslaughter is 15 years. Guy did 29 years already and a reasonable candidate for clemency.

Hadn't thought of it this way, but now I can see where this guy and Trump are actually the true victims in this scenario.
 
29 years for arranging the rubbery of a drug dealer .

Eh. Not overly sympathetic myself but seems a decent amount of time.


I'm more curious that he's only getting 3 months this time with that kind of priors
 
Trump trying to be like Harris getting people out of jail ..

You forgot about his biggest pardon, negotiating the release of 5000 Taliban soldiers from prison.

hmm, sounds like the system was working just fine before trump got involved.
