For Mr. Archer, his wife and their three adolescent children, it was a huge relief. It freed him from having to serve any part of his prison sentence of one year and one day, and from having to pay nearly $60 million in forfeitures and restitution.
NYT, who gives a fuck that he’s married and has kids? He’s a fucking scumbag.
It’s borderline reflexive at this point. The family members are victims, but the people who deserve that restitution that they now won’t receive don’t even get a mention. I guess they can still sue since a pardon doesn’t cover civil liability, but that’s beside the point.
