Actor Mel Gibson’s firearm rights were restored along with nine others, including an NFL Hall of Famer and former Jets player, after petitioning for pardons for their years-old crimes.
Gibson, who had been prohibited from purchasing guns following a 2011 domestic violence conviction, had appealed to President Trump to restore his rights earlier this year.
Attorney General Pam Bondi’s office said the AG “established to her satisfaction that each individual will not be likely to act in a manner dangerous to public safety and that the granting of the relief to each individual would not be contrary to the public interest.”
Along with Gibson, the AG’s office restored the firearms rights to former Jets defensive tackle Joseph Klecko.
