Alice Johnson

Alice Johnson is an American criminal justice reform advocate and former federal prisoner. She gained widespread attention after her 2018 commutation by President Donald Trump, which highlighted issues of sentencing fairness and mass incarceration. Johnson had been convicted for her involvement in a drug conspiracy and served 21 years before her release. She now works to improve the criminal justice system, advocating for clemency, fair sentencing, and second chances. Her story has inspired many efforts to reform policies that disproportionately affect marginalized communities and promote rehabilitation over incarceration.
