President Donald Trump said Thursday that former adviser Roger Stone wont be pardoned after he was sentenced to more than three years in prison.<\/p>\n

\u201cIm not going to do anything in terms of the great powers bestowed upon a president of the United States, I want the process play out, I think thats the best thing to do,\u201d Trump said in Las Vegas. \u201cBecause Id love to see Roger exonerated and Id love to see it happen because I personally think he was treated very unfairly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stone was convicted on all seven counts of an indictment that accused him of lying to Congress, tampering with a witness, and obstructing the House investigation into Trumps campaign during the 2016 election season.<\/p>\n

He was prosecuted for covering up for the president.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Trump told reporters that he hasnt given \u201cany thought\u201d to commuting Stones sentence, but said that \u201csomebody has to stick up for the people.\u201d At the same time, the Department of Justice last week withdrew his initial recommended sentence of seven-to-nine years in prison, prompting Democrats to call for investigations and hearings.<\/p>\n
