President Trump grants unconditional pardon to Stephen E. Buyer

The White House published a proclamation granting a full, complete, and unconditional pardon to Stephen E. Buyer. The document, dated June 4, 2026, was filed in the Federal Register on June 10, 2026.

Why it matters: A presidential pardon removes federal criminal penalties for the offense(s) specified in the document. It does not expunge records or restore civil rights that were lost due to state convictions, nor does it address any non-criminal consequences. The practical result is that Mr. Buyer is legally cleared of the specific federal offenses covered by this proclamation.
