I posted the information about Dumond being railroaded, because I believe that there is enough information out there to defend Huckabee in this one case based on the circumstances around Dumond’s arrest and conviction. [That is not to say that I would defend the large number of clemencies granted, but this whole can of worms came to a boil, to mix metaphors, due to the Dumond case.]
However, Huckabee chose to distance himself from Dumond’s release by claiming he had nothing to do with it. The other people involved are not backing him on this according to the posted article. It’s as if Huckabee got caught like a deer in the headlights and decided to lie his way out.
It’s always interesting to see how people behave under pressure. Given that he appeared to have a better defense than lying, it says lots about his character.
