Johnson was in the same prison as Negron and asked Trump personally to do something for her.

 This is one of the few cases that actually keeps me up at night,  Wax said.  Even 10 years later, I wake up in the middle of the night and I think about Judith Negron and where she is and how her life is going. I know she is a strong woman, but I've been praying for 10 years for this day to come, and it's finally here. 

In a Change.org petition, Negron says she takes full responsibility for her involvement in the scheme but is begging for clemency for the sake of her two sons.

Negron, along with two other owners and executives with American Therapeutic Corporation, was arrested in October 2010 in the scheme that prosecutors said billed Medicare for mental health treatments that patients didn't need.

Prosecutors said dating back to 2002, Negron and fellow owners Lawrence S. Duran and Marianella Valera paid bribes and kickbacks to owners and operators of assisted living facilities and halfway houses and to patient brokers in exchange for delivering ineligible patients to their facilities.

Negron was one of the four people Trump granted commutations to, including former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich. He also granted full pardons to seven people, including former NYPD commissioner Bernie Kerik and financier Michael Milken.
