Presidential pardons only apply to federal crimes. He cannot get Clinton out of state prosecutions / convictions.
Secondly I dont think Obama would pardon her since it would mean he would have to pardon a lot of other people. Multitudes of people invoking the 5th is bad enough and can be spun. Invoking the 5th with the President granting pardons would confirm his entire administration is / was corrupt.

I see Trump taking office and the new AG / FBI director reporting to him that evidence concerning a lot of cases are missing.

Will the Clinton's actually go to Jail? It's hard for me to imagine - I would like to see most of their ill gotten fortune taken away.
