Governor Chris Christie has issued a full pardon to Shaneen Allen, the single mother from Philadelphia who was arrested on October 1, 2013 during a traffic stop in Atlantic County on gun possession charges. Allen revealed to the police officer who stopped her that she was in possession of a hand gun that was licensed in Pennsylvania.
Allen told MMM that Christie informed her of the pardon during a phone call this afternoon. She posted the good new on facebook and Brietbart broke the news including a copy of the pardon. Allen had not seen the pardon paperwork until MMM sent her a link to the Brietbart report.
Allen, who had no previous criminal record, spent 40 days in the Atlantic County Jail following her arrest and before making bail.
