Boy, wonder how a rumor that Obama is going to pardon Manson will play? "Nothing says he can't..."
The law says he can't.
Manson was convicted of a state crime in a state court. The President's pardon power extends only to those convicted of a federal crime in a federal court.

I was wondering about that. That means Obama can’t pardon Mumia.
