Page 6A TV TIME East Oregonian Friday, May 1, 2015 Documentary on T-rex discovery leads to pardon request PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Pete Larson has discovered thousands of fossils around the world, co-authored three books and led the team that unearthed the largest and most complete Tyranno- saurus rex ever found. But there’s one black mark on his record: a federal conviction that landed him in prison almost 20 years ago. His name could soon be cleared because of a docu- mentary released last year at the Sundance Film Festival, which has brought his legal blemish back into the public eye and spurred South Dakota residents — and Larson himself — to push for President Barack Obama to give him a pardon. “Dinosaur 13” details the discovery of “Sue,” a Tyran- nosaurus rex that was more than 90 percent complete when it was discovered in 1990 in South Dakota. Federal agents seized the Timothy Larson/Black Hills Institute via AP In this June 2013 photo provided by Black Hills Insti- tute of Geological Research, Peter Larson excavates a Triceratops femur near Newcastle, Wyoming. fossil in 1992, alleging that Larson’s Black Hills Institute of Geological Research and its employees took it from federal trust land. While those charges never stuck, the federal government investigated the institute and brought more than 150 unrelated charges against Television > Today’s highlights its employees. Only Larson and two others were found guilty, and the paleontologist was sentenced to two years in federal prison for lying on customs documents about thousands of dollars used for fossil deals in Peru and Japan and illegally taking fossils from a national forest in Montana. Larson’s backers have argued for more than two decades that he was over- zealously prosecuted. The movie’s release has reignited that conversation, leading his supporters to push for the president to correct what they see as the government’s mistake. The South Dakota Legislature overwhelmingly passed a resolution this session that’s been sent to Obama requesting a pardon for Larson. And Larson is working with an attorney on a formal request — a move he hopes could clear his name and allow him to travel to Canada, where he said more work is to be done. “It’s something very special for me personally to have this piece of paper that says I’m pardoned for these offenses,” Larson said. “It’s an important mile marker to reach.

The lone two lawmakers — out of 105 — who opposed the resolution said they personally know people who were involved in the investigation, believe Larson’s crime was serious and that the conviction was MXVWL¿HG “It’s possible that he was overzealously prosecuted but yet guilty of the crimes on which he was found guilty of,” said Rep.
