"Trump couldn't even seek help from the state's governor, because in Georgia, unlike many other states, the governor cannot issue pardons.

Instead, pardons are issued by the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles, a five-member panel authorized by the state constitution. The board considers applications beginning at least five years after an individual has completed his or her sentence. That timeline differs from the federal system, where presidents can issue pardons before a person has even been prosecuted."

Did not know that. Interesting. So he would have to serve his time before a pardon could be considered, and then it's not up to the governor in any event. Kinda weird how that was worded..."five years after an individual has completed his or her sentence". What's the point of a pardon if you've already done the time, and been out for five years? Just to clear your name? That's still potentially a lot of years lost, and a life ruined.
