Leonard Peltier, an Indigenous activist, has been denied parole by the US Parole Commission, with his next hearing scheduled for June 2026, despite claims of wrongful conviction and failing health. Peltier, who has been in prison since 1977 for the 1975 killings of two FBI agents, faces challenges due to the FBI's opposition to his release. Supporters argue that Peltier did not receive a fair trial and stress his declining health. Efforts for parole and presidential clemency have faced significant obstacles, with concerns over the conduct of his trial and investigations persisting.
