Trump pardons former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has signed an executive order granting a full pardon to former San Francisco 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr. related to a decades-old corruption charge, the White House said Tuesday.

DeBartolo pleaded guilty to a felony fraud charge in 1998 related to a payment to former Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards to help secure a casino license. DeBartolo had to pay a $1 million fine and was given two years probation in return for his testimony against Edwards, a Democrat. DeBartolo was banned from the NFL for a year, and turned over control of the team to his sister in 2000. While he was the team’s owner, the 49ers won five

All crooks. All Dirty money. All Rich white Men buying their way out of trouble. America is dead. By the way a pardon is admission of guilt.

Ambitus

All these corrupt and easily corruptible people will owe him a big favor. That’s how he works.

Won’t be long before Al Capone is pardoned and granted clemency posthumously.

So bribery is ok now? 🤦🏾‍♂️

I’m so internally confused right now. I usually don’t like it when Trump does things like this. I also know what Eddie did was wrong. But as a Niner fan this makes me happy. So I feel my emotions betray me...

Nice hair 4 an old man. So young lmao

More campaign donations

Corruption rules!

Just unbelievable, more abuse of power of the office he holds

Trump favours the best people...🙄🇬🇧🇺🇸

Obama absolved the sentences of 1,937 convicts during his two terms in the White House. According to the Pew Research Center: 'Barack Obama ended his presidency having granted clemency to more people convicted of federal crimes than any chief executive in 64 years.

You're welcome Eddie....Can you do me a favor though?

daffi515 Trump is always impeached . DeBartolo is always guilty.

They were so unfair to him though! 🙄🙄

Not sure of the point in this. He pleaded guilty, paid a fine, served probation. I don't see the service of justice.

How do you pardon a person who pleads guilty and never did jail time?
