Here is a great place to first use your pen for a full and complete pardon of Dad.

Wouldn't the governor of Alabama would be the one to petition, not POTUS?

Twelve years later cannot be written off as a crime of passion or losing control, something that could have been argued and won if he would have taken the perv down within six months or so of molesting his daughter
