    But since he’s facing state crimes, those can only be pardoned by the governor.

      Right, but we’re discussing the new federal charges that have been added, as reported in the OP story.

        I know, I’m just saying it doesn’t matter. Sure he can be pardoned, but he’d still be spending the rest of his days in prison.

        If he were sentenced to death, I feel like that would make him a martyr anyway.
