Clemency is an executive power assigned to the president of the United States to intervene in specific criminal cases. For example, a president can issue a presidential pardon or commutation of sentence. A presidential pardon forgives someone for committing a federal crime and restores their rights.
A commutation is a reduction of a sentence to a lesser period of time. The president can commute a sentence if he believes the punishment is too severe for the crime. While a pardon deletes a conviction, a commutation keeps the conviction but deletes or lowers the punishment.
In February 2015, Governor Tom Wolf announced a formal moratorium on executions that is still in effect as of 2024, with incumbent Governor Josh Shapiro continuing Wolf's moratorium. However, capital crimes are still prosecuted and death warrants are still issued.
Commutation is when you change the sentence - go from prison to judicial release (early parole). Pardon is done by a member of the executive branch (president/governor) who basically says the crime is forgiven so there can be no prosecution/penalty.
To “commute a sentence” is the power to substitute a sentence imposed by the judiciary for a lesser sentence. In other words, it means the power to reduce or lessen a sentence resulting from a criminal conviction. For example, a ten-year sentence may be commuted to a five-year sentence.
