Copied below from another freeper yesterday:

The Supreme Court decided in 1915 Burdick v. United States that:
1. The president MAY issue pardons pre-emptively for unknown crimes against the United States.
2. The grant of a pardon imputes guilt to the person receiving the pardon.
3. Therefore, the recipient must accept the pardon for it to be valid, and that accepting a pardon is a confession of guilt.
4. After accepting a pardon, the recipient loses their 5th Amendment protection against testifying.
