PHILADELPHIA (January 22, 2025)—The following should be attributed to Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner:
“Arrests and prosecutions are based on probable cause, not on whether you agree or disagree with a political position. Unlike the current president, who this week pardoned or commuted sentences for over one thousand lawfully convicted and sentenced insurrectionists, my office and others will continue to uphold the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law.”
