Does it really matter?
Huckabee let him out of a 95 year sentence, the end result four policemen killed and a child raped.
Hey Huckleberry!.... Your legacy in cement....four dead officers!...
Yes, it matters.
There were several years, several arrests, and several incarcerations between those events.
True, Huckabee let him out of a long sentence, but he didn’t parole (or release) him at the time, nor has he been involved in the subsequent years’ worth of arrests of this criminal.
I’m not saying Huckabee had NO contribution, but he is a link in a long chain of events. He just happens to be the biggest fish in the barrel.
Those who would blame him solely, are looking for any reason to blame him.
