Hollande Pardons Jacquline Sauvage
French President Francois Hollande grants a presidential pardon to Jacqueline Sauvage who killed her abusive husband

The official statement issued by the Elysée (the official residence) said, “the President…pursuant to Article 17 of the Constitution[of France] and on the advice of the Minister of Justice, has decided to grant Madame Jacqueline Sauvage a reduction of herprison sentence by the remaining 2 years and 4 months.” The pardon “enables Sauvage to immediately submit a request forparole.” The President, who was “facing an exceptional human situation,” wanted to “make it possible” for Sauvage to returnto her family at the earliest opportunity.

The case attracted the attention of nearly 4,000 people who signed a petition asking for her release. Holland met with herlawyers, her daughters and the Minister of Justice before taking the weekend to “reflect” on the situation.
Sauvage was convicted of killing her husband of 47 years. After a lifetime of abuse, her son committed suicide. The day after sheshot her husband three times with a rifle. He was shot in the back. She was sentenced to 10 years in prison in October of 2014.An appeal in December of 2015 upheld the original decision, rejecting her plea of self-defence.
Hollande could not free Sauvage, as the parole application requires acceptance by a sitting Judge. With Hollande’s pardon, shecould be home by April.
