Just a heads up really for anyone wanting to take advantage of these. They seem to reset the timer, which in some ways - from a coding standpoint - is understandable.
For example, lets say you have 1 hour left on a long-term murder, using the forged pardon will consume that murder and leave you with the usual 40 hours on the next - rather than 1 hour on the next. So it would be more efficient to wait the 1 hour then use it. I've tested this three times, and while I'm still not 100% certain, this seems to be what it's doing. I'm posting this here predominantly because I don't play other servers, so I haven't used pardons on them and can't be certain it's universally true (although it probably is).
