SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Two Utahns convicted of federal crimes have been granted pardons.
The pardons were granted yesterday by President Bush.
The two Salt Lake City residents are Adam Wade Graham and Denise Bitters Mendelkow.
Graham's original 1992 sentence of two-and-a-half years behind bars was later reduced to eleven months and 21 days for conspiracy to deliver ten or more grams of L-S-D in Wyoming.
Mendelkow was placed on two years probation in 1981 for embezzlement by a bank employee.
Both Graham and Mendelkow have served their time.
In all, the President granted 14 people pardons.
