Will Jelly Roll Be Pardoned For Past Crimes After Tennessee Board’s Unanimous Recommendation?

The Tennessee Board of Parole has unanimously recommended Jelly Roll (aka Jason DeFord) be pardoned. The 40-year-old musician was previously convicted of crimes ranging from robbery to drug charges in his teens and early adulthood and spent time in prison. Now, that record could be forgiven as Jelly Roll fights to prove he’s a changed man.
