They'll be back before a judge on various pedophilia and sexual assault charges soon enough.

That is only half the story. He didn't lose eyesight from it at first. But the wound wouldn't heal because the guy didn't shower and so it kept getting infected, until he lost his eyesight. All according to his ex-girl friend.
When the formal justice fails to deliver justice, the people will resort to less formal methods. That might get messy.
These aren't charges they're dismissing. They're dismissing convictions. Dismissing a conviction sounds a lot like a pardon. I didn't know it was legally possible for a prosecutor to do that.
These people were found guilty through due process. Now the DOJ is re-writing history.
It’s possible to vacate convictions “in the interests of justice” - think someone on death row with exculpatory evidence found years later and a prosecutor mature enough to admit they made a mistake. Or in this case a corrupt DOJ and a corrupt court system working in concert.
None of this should be working like this.
Which ones? The ones being pardoned or the ones doing the pardoning?

I appreciate your optimism
You're not far off. I recall seeing this story appear in some comm here a few weeks ago:
https://www.wwlp.com/news/crime/amherst-man-sentenced-for-child-pornography-after-jan-6-pardon/
They have to get work with ICE and traffick kidnapped minors for Donny for a few months first.
Hmmm sounds like maybe we need to find a form of justice that can’t be dismissed

But if they were minority children exonerated by DNA evidence they'd do fuck-all about it. Zero hyperbole involved to call these fucks disgusting Nazis.
Probably making deals pre-midterms. We'll keep you out of jail if you intimidate blue state elections. Hell we'll give you an ICE uniform on top of that
