Regarding finished past events, we use the
present perfect simple to relate events that occurred in a time period that has not yet finished
and the
simple past for events that took place in a time period that has ended.
American English generally allows for the use of either tense in these situations, while British English grammar insists on using the two tenses to distinguish them.
The arrest took place in the time period of "early this morning", which is apparently assumed to be over at the time of the utterance. So the relevant fact is not that the arrest is finished, but that the early morning is finished.
"This is the third time she's been arrested this year", on the other hand, occurs in an unfinished time period (if this year is not yet over), and so allows for (British: requires) the present perfect.
I think that you'll be fine with any of the three in terms of clarity of meaning, though I'll discourage the past perfect in this case.
To my eye the issue seems more grounded in the first clause of the sentence: I usually have to read over, which establishes that the speaker engages in this behavior exclusively in the present (if not on a regular, ongoing basis). I think that present perfect and simple past are both appropriate here.
The relevance of the material that was taught is still in effect at the time of any given review, so the past perfect seems undesirable to me. It is also the case that the past perfect suggests that the pattern is not ongoing, which is at odds with the first clause's suggestion of an activity that still occurs. Such a reading would suggest that the speaker regularly reviews things taught in a specific period of the past, such as reviewing his/her own course notes from a specific class taken years ago, repeatedly. Conjugation in the second clause aside, I would not find this to be a natural reading of the sentence as constructed.
As for the other two options, with no context beyond what was presented in the OP I think that they are functionally interchangeable. Presumably each "unit" of teaching is what is being reviewed, whether that's by topic, course, day, semester, individual lecture or whatever. Each review is paired with some amount of teaching, but that the groupings are appropriate is implied by the larger sentence.
So, whatever unit is being considered, that material definitively was taught in the past-- presumably the speaker would not be reviewing planned material for an upcoming lesson at the same time as reviewing material actually delivered (if this is the intended meaning, the sentence itself does not suggest so). At the same time, it remains the case in the present that that material has been taught, and the review of that past action implies that that action is still relevant at the time of review.
TL;DR: My read of the sentence favors the simple past, as each "unit" of teaching is discrete and occurred only in the past with regard to any given review, and its relevance to the present exists only within the context of the review itself. The present perfect is also technically correct and appropriate but adds no useful information beyond what the simple past supplies. Past perfect may not be appropriate because it suggests a different meaning than the other two options suggest, leading me to believe that this is not the intended meaning.

Just the fact that the exact time is not mentioned should not make you use present perfect automatically.
Think of present perfect as describing the present result of an action that is perfect (completed). It is useful to connect a past event to the present time.
If the main discussion is about about how "Doctor Manhattan" is doing these days, then the statement about its creators does describe a completed action, and present perfect is a good choice.
However, if the main point of the sentence is the creation, rather than the current state, then present perfect is not a good choice. It might leave the reader with a feeling of "... and then what?"
For describing events in the past without relating them to the present, persent perfect should not be used. Past simple is preferrable (and simple!)
