Relatives of an 8-year-old boy and his mother who were murdered by a Connecticut drug gang are outraged that a man convicted in the killings was one of nearly 2,500 people whose drug-related prison sentences were commuted by former President Joe Biden in his last days in office.

Adrian Peeler, whose drug sentence was commuted by President Biden before he left office, killed a Bridgeport woman and her 8-year-old son in 1999.

Former President Joe Biden's commutations of Connecticut federal cases included clemency for Bridgeport's Adrian Peeler and Jerrmayne Butler of New Haven.
