As a parallel, consider Alan Turing. At the time, he was convicted of an offense. Whether or not this led to his premature demise, we must leave for another thread. Now, that offense no longer exists. There have been attempts to pardon Alan Turing, as yet unsuccessful. However, I feel it can be sensibly argued that what truly conveys justice is the retroactive abolishment of the crime - that he would be, tragically posthumously, of an untarnished record. Ought not such be justly applied in these circumstances also?
