Was his crime a federal crime? I thought the President can only pardon federal criminals.

The governor would have to pardon on any state level criminals.

Joe was enforcing state law. The fed ala slimy communist Holder/Lynch made it fed.

Good point and it brings up an interesting legal question.

Since Sheriff Joe was found guilty of contempt of court by a Federal judge in a Federal court was he found guilty of a Federal crime?
