About 1,540 people whose sentences were commuted or pardoned were pardoned by President Joe Biden on Thursday .

Biden 's clemency was the largest single-day act of clemence in modern history.

A woman who stole $54 million from a small Illinois town is "a slap in the face" to residents of Dixon , Illinois .

Conahan had already served the vast majority of his sentence, which was handed down in 2011 .

"I do feel strongly that President Biden got it absolutely wrong and created a lot of pain here in northeastern Pennsylvania ," Gov. Josh Shapiro says.

Conahan and Judge Mark Ciavarella shut down a county-run juvenile detention center and accepted $2.8 million in illegal payments.
