Jonathan Pollard is currently serving his 24th year of a life sentence even though the median sentence for the offense he was indicted for is 2 to 4 years.
Jonathan Pollard never had a trial. He entered into a plea agreement, and fulfilled his end of the agreement, cooperating fully with the prosecution. Jonathan Pollard was indicted on only one charge: one count of passing classified information to an ally without intent to harm the United States. In spite of his plea agreement and in spite of his cooperation, Pollard received an unprecedented, grossly disproportionate life sentence.
It is unjust that Pollard has been punished much more severely than all others who committed similar offenses on behalf of other US allies. Please commute Jonathan Pollard's sentence to time-served.
