Trevor Milton's Pardon: A Controversial Twist in the Electric Vehicle Story.
Reading
Trevor Milton, who started an electric car company, was found guilty of lying to investors. President Donald Trump pardoned Milton, which means he might not have to pay back the money he owed.
Prosecutors said Milton made his company seem better than it was to get people to invest. For example, they showed a video of a truck going down a hill, but they said it could drive by itself.
Milton gave a lot of money to Trump's campaign before the election. Trump said he pardoned Milton because many people asked him to and because Milton supported him.
This pardon happened shortly after Trump pardoned many people who were involved in the January 6th Capitol riot. He also pardoned Ross Ulbricht, who created a website for selling drugs online.
Milton's company, Nikola, had to file for bankruptcy after the truth about his lies came out. The prosecutors who worked on the case against Milton said that company leaders should learn from this and not lie to investors.
