To: plain talk
In addition to the multiple burglaries, Clemmons had committed VIOLENT robberies, stolen a state trooper's gun, attacked a court officer with a padlock, and attempted to take a guard’s gun. If he had succeeded, it would have been an Arkansas courtroom flowing with innocent blood, instead of a Washington coffee shop.

I am not faulting Huckabee for his lack of hindsight, I am faulting him for his pathetic lack of foresight. Violent felons, with records like Clemmons almost always commit more violent crimes if they are released.

Huckabee took a gamble on this psychopath and lost his reputation. Sadly, 4 police officers and their families lost infinitely more!

Huckabee isn’t the only one who allowed Clemmons to murder 4 officers.

That a judge would release Clemmons with an outstanding warrant, after being charged with the sexual assault of a 12 year old and assault on a police officer after another judge refused Clemmons bail will need to be answered for.

The people of Washington State should be demanding that judge be removed from the bench.
