Would ya quit talking sense?
Clemmons was a young punk that got convicted of robbery, theft of property and possessing a handgun on school property when he was 17 or so...served 11 years in prison, got his sentence commuted by Huckabee, then VIOLATED his parole, went back in for another couple of years, so that's around 14 years inside...but here's a money quote from the Seattle Times...
"He was returned to prison on a parole violation. But in what appears to have been a mistake, Clemmons was not actually served with the arrest warrants until leaving prison three years later. As a result, Clemmons' attorney argued that the charges should be dismissed because too much time had passed. Prosecutors dropped the charges."
You can give Huck some trouble for the commutation, but a lot of people dropped the ball here starting with the guys that approved Clemmons clemency application and forwarded it to the Governor...oh, and I wouldn't vote for Huckabee in a billion years regardless...magritte

And anyone can check my posts...I’ve been more critical of Huck in the last few years than almost anyone.

Levin reported that the prosecutor vehemently protested commuting the sentence, but huckabee ignored him.
Then the prosecutor said that his worst nightmares were realized with the multiple slayings.
Then huckaphoney plays the race card.
If we are supposed to have sympathy for this guy, I don’t. Too many dead people and their families at the front of that line.
