Maybe Trump can sign an executive order

Saying the president can't erase facts, a federal judge on Thursday rejected a bid by former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio to have all record of his criminal conviction wiped out.

Susan Bolton said she already dismissed the criminal contempt case against Arpaio following the decision by President Trump to issue a pardon. That saved the former sheriff, who had been found guilty, from the possibility of going to jail for up to six months.

[...]

"The power to pardon is an executive prerogative of mercy, not of judicial record-keeping," Bolton wrote, quoting earlier court precedent.

[...]

In fact, the judge said there is case law showing that a pardon carries an imputation of guilt — and that acceptance is "a confession of it."

A woman. Watch out Judge.

Arpaio, however, is not willing to simply enjoy his freedom.

"It's not going to be dropped," he told Capitol Media Services.

No, of course not.

But now, with the pardon, there's no opportunity to appeal, meaning the record of the conviction remains. And that, [Arpaio's attorney] said would be something that could be used against the former sheriff in any future criminal or civil case.

And guess who they're blaming? That's right. The judge.
