12670337, Nixon is an example of pardoning someone who hasn't been charged Posted by Marbles, Tue Dec-09-14 12:45 PM They're not using that one as an example of a deterrent. When Ford pardoned Nixon, Nixon hadn't been charged with anything. Given time, there most likely would have been. But Ford gave him the preemptive pardon. He pardoned him for anything connecting Nixon to Watergate that may have come up.
