Biden's FBI director expressed 'vehement' opposition to Peltier commutation Before former President Joe Biden commuted the life sentence of Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier on Monday, he received a warning from outgoing FBI Director Christopher Wray. Peltier was convicted of killing two FBI agents in the 1970s. Wray sent a letter to the White House on Jan. 10. In it, the FBI director expressed "vehement and steadfast opposition to the commutation of Leonard Peltier's sentence." "I hope these letters are unnecessary, and that you are not considering a pardon or commutation," he wrote. "But on behalf of the FBI family, and out of an abundance of caution, I want to make sure our position is clear: Peltier is a remorseless killer, who brutally murdered two of our own–Special Agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams. Granting Peltier any relief from his conviction or sentence is wholly unjustified and would be an affront to the rule of law." npr.org Tom
