President Bush pardoned a man from the Rosebud Sioux Reservation in South Dakota for a crime committed more than 30 years ago.
Lonnie Edward Two Eagle Sr. had been sentenced to two years probation in 1976 for misdemeanor simple assault on a reservation.
Bush issued 15 pardons and one commutation. He has granted far fewer pardons and commutations than former president Bill Clinton and the late president Ronald Reagan.
