Frank founder Charlie Javice seeks Trump pardon after fraud conviction: WSJ
The former Frank founder is courting allies close to the Trump administration as white-collar defendants seek clemency before a possible 250-pardon wave.
- Convicted Frank founder Charlie Javice is reportedly seeking a presidential pardon from President Trump, with her camp quietly courting individuals close to the administration, according to The Wall Street Journal.
- Last year, Javice was sentenced to 85 months in prison for defrauding JPMorgan after fabricating millions of customer accounts to inflate Frank's value before selling it for $175 million.
- The administration reportedly weighs handing out roughly 250 pardons this summer to mark America's 250th birthday, attracting clemency requests from white-collar defendants including Sam Bankman-Fried.
- Javice has backing from Apollo's Marc Rowan, an early Frank investor who testified on her behalf at trial and has since donated millions to Republican congressional groups.
- President Trump previously sued JPMorgan and CEO Jamie Dimon for $5 billion, calling the bank's 2021 closure of his business accounts political "debanking," which JPMorgan denies.
