AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR RDJ: Robert Downey Jr. is among the 91 people who are receiving a Christmas Eve pardon from the Governor of California.
An annual tradition, those receiving a pardon from the governor are granted clemency for past crimes, most of them non-violent and/or minor drug offenses that are no longer felonies under California law.
RDJ was arrested multiple times for drug offenses (especially in 1996) and was sentenced to prison in 1999. He cumulatively served two years and eight months in the penitentiary.
The pardon reads: “By completion of his sentence and good conduct in the community of his residence since his release, Robert John Downey, Jr. has paid his debt to society and earned a full and unconditional pardon.”
