Pardoned Man Faces New Charges in Alabama Murders

Alabama man, Barry Donnell Craig, faces new charges in the deaths of Terance Smith and Erik Thomas, despite receiving a partial pardon earlier this year. The pardon, granted by the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles, did not restore his gun rights. Craig and Wesley Rice made their initial court appearances this week, marking the start of a complex legal process. The case raises questions about the pardon process and the separation between pardon board decisions and law enforcement investigations. DNN | The Daily News Now!
