The same way that President Ford pardoned Richard Nixon.
It's not the same as a President releasing people from prison and pardoning them.
In this case President Obama will simply do what Ford did...give Hillary a full presidential pardon for her "involvement".
READ what Sly posted:
Can President Bush pardon people who haven't even been charged with a crime?
And of course if any of you would simply use Google you could have found it out for yourselves that the President can indeed issue a sweeping pardon.
