Jonathan Daniel Pollock, Olivia Michele Pollock and Joseph Daniel Hutchinson III were taken into custody early Saturday morning. Law enforcement agencies are offering a reward of up to $500,000 for information leading to an arrest of that person. “The president often pardons named individuals,” Jeffrey Crouch, an assistant professor at American University and the author of “The Presidential Pardon Power,” told CNN. “I do think that our position would probably make Jack Smith’s prosecution on the same charge more difficult,” Green said.
