Alice Johnson, who had her life sentence for drug charges commuted by President Donald Trump in 2018, spoke on the final night of the Republican National Convention on Aug. 27, 2020.
Alice Johnson started her speech by noting that she had once been told that the only way she would ever be re-united with her family was as a corpse. Ms. Johnson copped to her mistakes which involved a non-violent offense that earned her a life sentence plus 25 years.
Alice Johnson described the elation she felt upon being freed by PDJT from an unjust sentence. She noted PDJT’s actions in bringing forth the First Step law which is real justice reform. This law will bring hope and freedom to thousands of deserving people.
Ms. Johnson exemplified a true Christian who sees God’s plan for her. Johnson gives credit to President Trump for seeing the forgotten and for taking action.
