The president can delay the punishment of a person by issuing a pardon or a commutation. A pardon absolves the individual of the crime and its consequences, while a commutation reduces the severity of the punishment, such as shortening a prison sentence.

General Robert E. Lee made two important assumptions as the Battle of Antietam was about to unfold in September of 1862. One such assumption was that troops led by General Stonewall Jackson would arrive from Harper's Ferry sooner than they did. Jackson's late arrival to join Lee potentially allowed for Lee to be attacked by Union General George B. McClellan's army with a two to one troop advantage. The second assumption of Lee that McClellan would delay his attack was true.

Historians have noted that Union General George B. McClellan had a better chance to destroy the Army of Northern Virginia if he attacked on September 16, 1862. His decision to wait until September 17, 1862 to start his attack has been questioned. One likely reason for the one day delay can be blamed on McClellan's battle record of being too late to take action.
General George McClellan waited sixteen hours to attack during the Battle of Antietam due to a combination of caution, a desire to consolidate his forces, and a need for more reconnaissance. He was overly cautious about committing his troops, fearing potential counterattacks and wanting to ensure he had a numerical advantage. This delay allowed Confederate General Robert E. Lee to strengthen his positions, ultimately impacting the battle's outcome. McClellan's hesitance is often criticized as a missed opportunity to decisively confront Lee's army.
