Trump's Pardon: Child Abuser, Epstein Case Revived

A Florida man, Andrew Paul Johnson, who received a pardon from former President Donald Trump for his involvement in the January 6th Capitol riot, has been convicted on multiple state charges of child molestation and indecent exposure, according to NPR News and other sources. Johnson's conviction, which carries the potential for a life sentence, has raised further questions about the implications of Trump's pardons.

Johnson was charged in Florida, as reported by NPR News. The charges stem from incidents involving child molestation and exposing himself to children. The Hernando County Sheriff's Office was involved in the case, according to NPR News. Johnson attempted to bribe a victim, highlighting a disturbing pattern of behavior following his pardon, as reported by multiple sources.

The news of Johnson's conviction comes amid other developments involving Trump and his associates. According to Vox, Trump's attempts to indict Democratic lawmakers have been unsuccessful. Additionally, Attorney General Pam Bondi declined to directly apologize to victims of Jeffrey Epstein during a House Judiciary Committee hearing, as reported by Time. Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal noted that every Epstein survivor present at the hearing had raised their hand when asked if they had been able to meet with the Department of Justice.

In other news, a pioneering research and development lab of USAID has been resurrected as an independent nonprofit, according to Vox. This lab was dissolved a year ago.
