Only the guilty can be pardoned. If the authorities pardoned her,it confirms her guilt but forgives her indiscretions. Now if she were exonerated and her record expunged, that would be some level of advancement. </div></div> </div></div>

Yes, the term &quot;pardon&quot; was a cold slap in the face to the family. Only a full out apology would be fitting.

But so it go! </div></div>
