so he is guilty. Call him to court as a witness, rake the sob over the coals so everyone knows and let him walk.
Just nullify these “pardons”. Biden didn’t know what he was doing.
Excerpt from “Overview of the Pardon Power” from Constitution.Congress.com
Beyond textual limits, certain external constitutional and legal considerations may act as constraints on the power. For instance, the Court has indicated that the power may be exercised at any time after [an offense’s] commission,8 reflecting that the President may not preemptively immunize future criminal conduct.
Assuming the recognized limitations are not transgressed, a full pardon granted by the President and accepted by its subject15 prevents or removes any of the penalties and disabilities consequent upon conviction . . . .

IOW The pardon implies quite explicitly that an offense was committed by Byrd and that he did not have to accept the pardon, should he want to preserve the illusion of innocence.
What state? DC is under federal controll.
why is there all these delays?
I hope it is Trump slapping the s*** out of Bidumb for these last minute pardons.
You need to read more.
Pardons are done for all sorts of crimes but usually after the said criminal has been charged and convicted.
But the power to pardon is without limitations it seems
Civil suits to follow and no 5th amendment bar to depositions, subpoenas, etc.
That’s right. Biden has now elevated pardon power to anyone who has not been indicted or convicted of a crime.
It now opens Byrd up to a wrongful death civil suit.
A crime does not have to have been committed in that state for a state to prosecute for it so long as it has effects within the state. For example if the person murdered were a resident....or if their spouse is a resident.....
Pardoned his brother last night.
I doubt that is true unless it involves interstate crime which this was not
Which state do you propose to bring charges? Texas?
Biden spent four years spitting in the eye of EVERY American, except, of course, his buddies!
Its true. It was true when I passed the bar exam and its still true today.
As to which state, it would have to be a state in which there were effects....ie if the husband resided in such a state for example.
Should I be waiting for President Trump's pre-pardon of his entire cabinet and the executive branch for the next 4 years?
No one will face a crime of the last 4 years.
Okay, please give an case example of where this has happened, counselor!
No Statute of Limitations
On MURDER!
Probably San Diego California.
Yes we were right, but I am not consoled that these criminals are off the hook for their crimes. I'm also mad at the media, the corrupt media who assisted the lies.
