A 57-year-old US Army veteran born in Korea was pardoned for crimes that led to his self-deportation. Sae Joon Park had voluntarily left the country after immigration officials unexpectedly threatened to arrest him due to a prior conviction. His case drew national attention in December. Park is among a group of non-citizen US military veterans who self-deported or were expelled from the country as part of a crackdown on immigration.
The pardon raises hopes that Park may be able to return to the United States. Further details about his situation and the pardon are available.
The incident occurred as part of a broader immigration policy under former President Donald Trump.
