Abraham Bolden was the first Black man in the country to serve on a presidential detail, for former President John F. Kennedy.
In 1964, the former Secret Service agent was charged with allegedly attempting to sell a copy of a Secret Service file and served 39 months in prison.
Bolden, who has always maintained his innocence, discusses his recent pardon by President Biden, along with Cherese Williams, who helped Bolden to write his clemency petition.

"Who is Abraham Bolden and why was he pardoned?
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Tuesday pardoned Abraham Bolden, the Chicago man who was the first Black Secret Service agent to serve on a White House detail, who maintained charges against him that led to prison time were trumped up."
