President Donald Trump has pardoned Michele Fiore. That’s right — she will now escape consequences for her federal conviction on six counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. She was scheduled to be sentenced on May 14.
Fiore allegedly diverted monies received for her Las Vegas city council campaign, political action committee and her charity. She was accused of lying on her campaign finance reports.
Fiore has maintained her innocence and claimed she was singled out by the so-called “deep state” for her support of Donald Trump and Cliven Bundy. As you may recall, she stood by Bundy during his standoff with the federal government in our area in 2014, and his subsequent trial and acquittal.
Here is the order for a full and unconditional pardon.
