Gov. Wolf pardoned Meek Mill, among hundreds of other Pennsylvanians, in his final days in office

PHILADELPHIA — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf granted rapper Meek Mill clemency on a 15-year-old drug and weapons possession charge in his last round of pardons, issued Thursday.

The pardon is one of 369 Wolf issued in January, bringing his total to more than 2,540 during his eight years in office, the most of any Pennsylvania governor.

Mill — whose government name is Robert Rihmeek Williams — posted on Instagram a redacted official letter from the governor’s office dated Jan. 12 that clears him of charges of marijuana possession and carrying a firearm in Philadelphia.
