My line of thought goes along the lines of: I assume that Ozero issued blanket pardons to his team members. so in order to properly serve justice upon them, they had to be "allowed" to re-offend. Many were given positions in authority, knowing that they were intending to continue with their criminality. Everything that they said or did was under severe scrutiny and once sufficient evidence of crime was collected, they were dumped. Their Pardons are useless to them once they re-offend.

Pence is the subject of many rumours regarding serious offences against minors.
