Doors’ Jim Morrison Pardoned for Indecent Exposure
- by Post Staff Report
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida’s Clemency Board has posthumously pardoned singer Jim Morrison of The Doors for his 40-year-old conviction on indecent exposure and profanity charges. Outgoing Gov. Charlie Crist requested the pardon Thursday. The Clemency Board unanimously granted it.
Crist expressed doubts that Morrison actually exposed himself during a rowdy March 1, 1969, concert in Miami’s Dinner Key Auditorium.
Morrison was appealing the conviction when he was found dead in a Paris bathtub in 1971.
