The California governor commuted Rahsaan 'New York' Thomas' 55 1/2 years to life sentence, now putting his fate in the hands of the state parole board.
Thomas wrote for the Marshall Project, a nonprofit journalism organization centering on U.S. criminal justice, he said he"reacted with a hail of gunfire" on the night in question after seeing two armed men rob his friend in front of him.
In 2018, former California Governor Jerry Brown similarly commuted the sentence of Earlonne Woods, a co-creator, co-producer and co-host of the Ear Hustle podcast, the AP reported.
