Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe said on Wednesday that he will pardon his son for his felony marijuana charge. His son, Kyle, now 34, was charged in 2003 with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver. He already served three years of probation, but recently submitted a formal request for pardon. The Arkansas Parole Board recommended Kyle Beebe for pardon on October 20. "I would have done it a long time ago if he'd have asked, but he took his sweet time about asking,” said Beebe. “He was embarrassed. He's still embarrassed, and frankly, I was embarrassed and his mother was embarrassed.”
