Jeffrey Stringer's case has garnered national attention as an example of a nonviolent drug offender who faced a harsh sentence based on rigid federal guidelines.
But thanks to new guidelines signed into law last year by President Donald Trump, and publicity brought to the issue by Kim Kardashian West, defendants such as Stringer are getting a second chance.
"I never even thought I'd get to see him out of prison, so it feels good," Jacaria Stringer said after the judge ruled Friday. Her office has calculated Stringer's good behavior credits and believe he should be let out late Monday or early Tuesday. But the Bureau of Prisons has added up Stringer's good-behavior points to equal a June 30 release.
No matter when exactly Stringer will get out, his backers, who include the"Keeping up with the Kardashians" star, are ecstatic that it'll be sooner rather than later.
