Jelly Roll has been pardoned over his robbery and drug convictions.
The 41-year-old country singer - real name Jason DeFord - first went to jail at the age of 13 after being caught with cannabis and then failing to go to court. He later served a year behind bars over his involvement in a robbery when he was 16 and the felony conviction left him unable to vote or travel internationally without restrictions. However, he has now been granted a pardon by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee who cleared the singer of his robbery and drug possession convictions.
