据多尔蒂的律师乔治·博切托透露，唐纳德·特朗普总统已为前工会业务经理约翰·“约翰尼·多克”·多尔蒂减刑。
博切托在周五上午的电话中向福克斯新闻数字频道证实，总统已于周四签署了减刑令。
他表示，多尔蒂“随时都可能被释放”。
《费城询问报》报道称，这位律师透露，此次减刑还将免除多尔蒂约160万美元的赔偿金，他将无需接受监控或居家监禁，而是成为“自由人”。
针对这些细节，博切托向福克斯新闻数字频道证实：“全部属实。”

他将此次“人道主义释放”称为“极具人性的举措”，并指出一位共和党总统将减刑授予一位民主党政治人物，这“同样意义非凡”。
他表示，这表明“做正确的事”可以是一项“两党合作”的事业，并称赞自己“为特朗普感到无比自豪”。
博切托补充道，他“为约翰感到无比高兴，尤其为”多尔蒂“病情危重的妻子感到高兴，她的丈夫现在将能陪在她身边”。
福克斯新闻数字频道已于周五联系白宫置评。

多尔蒂曾担任国际电气工人兄弟会第98分会前业务经理，2024年被判处六年监禁。
美国司法部当时表示，多尔蒂的定罪与他挪用工会资金以及向一名费城市议员提供好处费有关。

“约翰·多尔蒂一直自称是第98分会最坚定的支持者，”时任美国检察官杰奎琳·罗梅罗在一份声明中说道。“但他一只手与电工们称兄道弟，另一只手却在压榨他们。他还通过与鲍比·赫农的腐败利益交换，欺骗了费城民众。”
“这座城市和它的工人们理应得到比工会老板和政客更好的待遇，这些人的真正优先级只是为自己谋利，”时任拜登任命的检察官罗梅罗补充道。“我要感谢所有参与此案的调查人员、分析师、检察官和工作人员，他们通过自己的工作，捍卫了费城的诚信和法治。”

President Donald Trump commuted the sentence of John “Johnny Doc” Dougherty, a former union business manager, according to Dougherty’s lawyer George Bochetto.
Bochetto confirmed to Fox News Digital during a Friday morning phone call that the president had inked the commutation on Thursday.
He said that Dougherty would be “released any hour now.”
The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that the lawyer indicated the move will also release Dougherty from needing to pay around $1.6 million for restitution, and that the man will not face monitoring or house arrest, but will be “a free man.”
Regarding those details, Bochetto confirmed to Fox News Digital, “It’s all true.”

He said the “compassionate release” was “remarkable in its humanity,” indicating that it was “equally as remarkable” that a Republican president granted it to the Democratic political figure.
He said that it demonstrates that “doing the right thing” can be an endeavor that is “bipartisan,” noting that he is “so proud” of Trump.
Bochetto added that he is “so happy for John, and particularly” for Dougherty’s “gravely ill wife, who will now have her husband by her side.”

Dougherty, a former business manager for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 98, was sentenced in 2024 to six years in prison.
The U.S. Justice Department said at the time that Dougherty had been sentenced in connection with embezzling funds from the union as well as in connection with payouts provided to a Philadelphia City Council member.

“John Dougherty held himself out as Local 98’s biggest booster,” then-U.S. Attorney Jacqueline Romero said in a statement. “But while he was backslapping his electricians with one hand, he was ripping them off with the other. He cheated Philadelphians, too, through his corrupt quid pro quo with Bobby Henon.”
“Our city and its workers deserve so much better than union bosses and politicians whose true priority is looking out for number one,” Romero, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, added at the time. “I want to thank all of the investigators, analysts, prosecutors, and staff who partnered on this case, and, in doing so, stood up for integrity and the rule of law in Philadelphia.”
