Victims of human trafficking or domestic abuse can now skip certain notification requirements when applying for clemency or pardon from the Board of Pardons and Paroles. To qualify for this exemption, applicants must submit an affidavit declaring they are a victim of trafficking or abuse, along with supporting affidavits from two professionals (such as law enforcement officers, mental health professionals, or social workers) who confirm the abuse occurred.
