Jimmy Carter made history by becoming the only president to offer a pardon to a child sex abuser. The abuser was Peter Yarrow from Peter, Paul and Mary.
Carter did not contact the victim, who was barely 14 at the time, before issuing his pardon to the lefty folk singer.
Since then at least one more victim has come forward. A lawsuit claimed that other members of the group “knew that Yarrow liked to have sexual intercourse with and perform other sex acts on minor children.”
While presidents do have a great deal of pardon power, at least in this world all pardons have been withdrawn.
Eight days after Carter went to his reward, Peter Yarrow followed him. The obituaries keep referring to Yarrow as a “social activist” which is apparently college slang for child sex abuser. But those same obituaries also praised Carter for his decency which is apparently media slang for enabling child sex abusers.
It’s bound to be a great reunion down there between the child molester and his presidential enabler.
