“His detention stems from a burglary conviction at age 16—a conviction he believed had been resolved when the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles granted him a pardon in 2010.“


““Mr. Taylor has a conviction—that’s true—but it was pardoned. He served no jail time and was sentenced only to probation and time served. He should not be subject to this kind of treatment,” Owings said.”
