Trump Pardons D.C. Officers Sutton and Zabavsky Convicted in Death of Karon Hylton-Brown
Jan 22, 2025, 11:31 PM
President Donald Trump has granted full and unconditional pardons to two former Washington, D.C., police officers, Terence Sutton and Andrew Zabavsky, who were convicted in the 2020 death of 20-year-old Karon Hylton-Brown, a D.C. native and father. Hylton-Brown died during an unlawful police chase when he collided with another vehicle while riding a moped. Sutton was convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to prison, while Zabavsky was sentenced to 48 months for covering up the circumstances of the chase. The pardons were announced by President Trump during a press conference and have been confirmed by multiple sources, including the officers' attorneys and the D.C. Police Union. The union had been working with the White House to seek clemency for the officers, arguing that they were wrongly tried and convicted.
