let me just say it: i am no mike huckabee fan. i feel he was a pivotal player in why we ended up with rino mccain as the gop candidate in the 2008 presidential election, and ultimately obama.
if huckabee is entertaining a 2012 presidential run, the fact that he granted clemency to violent career criminal, maurice clemmons – the suspect in the murdering of four police officers in washington state yesterday morning – might have, thankfully, finally popped that bubble.
the lakewood, washington officers killed in cold blood were identified as sergeant mark renninger, officer ronald owen, officer tina griswold, officer greg richards. here are their photos:
lakewood officers killed
and here’s a statement on huckabee’s website which seems to blame the legal systems in arkansas and washington for the release of willie horton er, violent maurice clemmons:
“He was recommended for and received a commutation of his original sentence from 1990, this commutation made him parole eligible and he was then paroled by the parole board once they determined he met the conditions at that time. He was arrested later for parole violation and taken back to prison to serve his full term, but prosecutors dropped the charges that would have held him.”
well governor… it seems to me that the legal systems in both states may have failed a bit to protect its citizens but you were a part of that failure but opening the door to this violent beast in the first place.
frankly, its pretty hard to rape children or kill, in cold blood, policemen in washington state if your locked up in prison in arkansas.
