Alice Johnson had her life sentence commuted by President Trump and is now touting his effort on criminal justice reforms at the Republican National Convention Thursday.<\/p>\n

She said she was given a second chance after spending more than 20 years in prison.<\/p>\n

\u201cSix months after President Trump granted me a second chance, he signed the First Step Act into law. It was REAL justice reform. And it brought joy, hope, and freedom to thousands of well-deserving people. I hollered Hallelujah! My faith in justice and mercy was rewarded. Imagine getting to hug your loved ones again. It\u2019s a feeling I will never forget. And to think, this first step meant so much to so many. I can\u2019t wait because we\u2019re just getting started,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The First Step Act, a historic bipartisan criminal justice reform law, passed Congress and was signed into law by Mr. Trump in 2018.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen President Trump heard about me \u2014 about the injustice of my story \u2014 he saw me as a person. He had compassion. And he acted. Free in body thanks to President Trump. But free in MIND thanks to the almighty God,\u201d Ms. Johnson said.<\/p>\n

She had been convicted in 1996 for taking part in a cocaine-trafficking organization.<\/p>\n
