Country music star Jelly Roll has been endorsed for a pardon for crimes he committed in his younger days, including robbery. The state Board of Parole voted unanimously to endorse the pardon, and now it is up to Governor Bill Lee to make a decision. Jelly Roll, also known as Jason B. Deford, has used his experience as inspiration for his music and to help others in prison or marginalized communities. He has spoken at prisons, rehabilitation programs, and schools, and received an advocacy award from the World Literacy Foundation. Jelly Roll spent many years behind bars before pursuing his music career, and he has been open about his past struggles with drugs and crime. He has used his platform to advocate for those struggling with addiction and to push for legislation to address fentanyl overdoses. Jelly Roll sees himself as a testament to the fact that it is never too late to change, and hopes his story will inspire others to turn their lives around. Governor Bill Lee will now decide whether to grant the pardon, commute his sentence, or deny the request. Jelly Roll expressed his gratitude to the Board of Parole for considering his case and giving him a second chance.
