Anyhow, all of that is beside the point. The president can constitutionally and legally pardon the man and his doing so would not be side-stepping the law in the least.

The President can also issue a reprieve which keeps him out of prison until after his appeal is settled.

I do think a reprieve would be the proper course of action at this time.
