I was answering the basic question can a pardon be issued if there was no criminal conviction.

And Nixons crimes were small in comparison to hillary.

No one has established that Nixon had committed a crime. Fords pardon was for possible crimes Nixon had committed.

It is a precident for weasel wording by obummer.

Yes, meant to put Nixon’s “crimes” in quotation marks.
