I wouldn't think so. It was illegal at the time of their conviction, so they still broke the law then.

Kind of like the opposite of the creosote thing with Domo. It was legal what they did at the time, so you can't go back and charge them for doing something legal then, just as you can't go back and uncharge a crime they did when it was illegal at the time.
