Federal Judge Will Not Void Guilty Ruling On Arpaio, Despite Trump's Pardon

[Gunny]

U.S. District Judge Susan Ritchie Bolton says that President Trump's pardon of former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio does not "revise the historical facts" of his case — and that she will not vacate her ruling that found Arpaio guilty of criminal contempt.
On Thursday, Bolton quoted Black's Law Dictionary to say that a pardon "releases the wrongdoer from punishment and restores the offender's civil rights without qualification." But she then added a further interpretation in her own words: "It does not erase a judgment of conviction, or its underlying legal and factual findings."

The constitution overrules that Liberal judge. Wonder how long she expects to remain a judge?

Yeppers! But now with a pardon, he should easily qualify and be able to get his conviction expunged aka set aside in Arizona, should he want to anyway.
