Due to the findings in the 1925 case, Burdick v. United States, it seems as though accepting a pardon is, in fact, admitting guilt. In Burdick the appellant was offered a pardon but declined it, also refusing to testify in criminal court. The opinion of the case given by the justices seemed to uncover that 1) a pardon can be given before a conviction and sentence; 2) a pardon can be refused, and 3) acceptance of a pardon implies acceptance of guilt.  https://courtmartiallaw.com/military-la ... mit-guilt/
Any fool would not accept it unless they were covering for someone or something else as I believe I read that once pardoned, you can't plead the 5th as it doesn't apply anymore if brought back into court for questioning...
