"As one of his last acts" the first President Bush pardoned a Pakistani heroin smuggler (reputedly with CIA ties) who had been caught red-handed in NYC with several MILLION DOLLARS of heroin in his possession.

He also, of course, pardoned several of the Iran-Contra big wigs (Cap Weinberger) of any and all charges - in advance of any formal inditments actually being brought.... A pretty neat way of saying someone is "untouchable".
