President Trump granted clemency to seven men on Monday, including Ted Suhl, an Arkansas man convicted in 2016 of paying bribes to a state official.

Mr. Trump commuted Mr. Suhl’s prison sentence and that of Ronen Nahmani, a Florida man convicted in 2015 of selling synthetic marijuana. The remaining men received pardons for convictions stretching back decades.

Mr. Suhl, 54, was sentenced to seven years in prison in 2016 after a jury found him guilty of four out of six charges related to the bribes, according to reports at the time. Federal prosecutors had argued that the bribes, sometimes funneled through a church, were paid in order to increase Medicaid funding to his juvenile mental health counseling businesses.

“Mr. Suhl was a pillar of his community before his prosecution and a generous contributor to several charities,” the Trump administration said in a statement. “He has been a model prisoner while serving his sentence, maintaining a spotless disciplinary record.”
