A Connecticut man who was convicted in one of the state's most notorious murder cases was one of the nearly 2,500 people whose federal drug-related prison sentences were commuted by former President Joe Biden in his last days in office.

Adrian Peeler, a man convicted in the 1999 killings of a mother and her 8-year-old son, had his sentence commuted by outgoing President Joe Biden last week.

During the search, authorities reportedly seized crack cocaine, heroin/fentanyl, packaging materials commonly used in street-level drug sales and $560.

Former President Joe Biden's commutations of Connecticut federal cases included clemency for Bridgeport's Adrian Peeler and Jerrmayne Butler of New Haven.

Shaquil Gary, of New Haven, was sentenced to 66 months in prison for possession of a firearm while on supervised release, officials said.
