Untrue - at least read the facts before commenting. For child rape (pretrial, but evidence was ironclad), not robbery like Huckabee.
How about Huckabee read the facts before he considered commuting Clemmons' sentence to just the right amount that the parole board would let him out about one month later:

There were also three separate courtroom incidents in 1990 where Clemmons tried to use a weapon against a judge, threw a padlock at a bailiff, and tried to take a guard's pistol. A judge ordered Clemmons be placed in leg shackles because he felt Clemmons has threatened him. Clemmons also displayed very erratic behavior during the trial, mumbling loudly throughout the proceedings. He also made an obscene gesture toward a state trooper testifying against him. There is a definite pattern of showing a complete lack of respect, and a lot of hostility, toward authority figures.
This is prior to the 2000 commutation. Clemency or commutation should be grated when there repentance present in the individual which doesn't seem to be the case in Clemmons' case because these aren't the only instances of bad behavior for Clemmons.
Here is the sequence:
You: Washington state gave him parole after he raped a child - something that no sane person, least of all Huckabee, would have done.
Me: You are incorrect. WA did NOT parole him.
You: Untrue - at least read the facts before commenting
Now, you are calling me a liar. Please provide ANY proof that WA gave him parole. Thank you.
