Original Note:
While a pardon of the federal crime may influence the state charges, this theory is legally complex and unprecedented. Additionally, a pardon does not remove a conviction from the record; it only restores rights and privileges and absolves the punishment. https://www.americanbar.org/advocacy/governmental_legislative_work/publications/washingtonletter/dec-2020-wl/legal-fact-check-pardons-1220wl/ https://www.findlaw.com/litigation/legal-system/presidential-pardon-power-and-its-limits.html
