More Mad at "Minister of Death" Huckabee - Families of Victims Speak Out!! : The Leader, Arkansas

[autorank]

The Minister of Death strikes again: the good people of Arkansas are fed up with the "continuing parade of clemencies and commutations in recent years, especially involving murders." Enough is enough. This guy has to go!

Kin against clemency

The Leader

By JOHN HOFHEIMER - Leader staff write

Now that they've been located, surviving family members of Helen Lynette Spencer, the 18-year-old Gravel Ridge woman brutally murdered by executive-clemency-candidate Glen M. Green, want the governor to hear their opposition, according to Lonoke County Prosecu-tor Lona McCastlain.

On July 6, Gov. Mike Huckabee served notice of his intent to reduce Green's life sentence and make him immediately eligible for parole, but has refused to say why.

Snip

McCastlain is among several public officials who have expressed opposition to the governor's continuing parade of clemencies and commutations in recent years, especially involving murders. It was the Lonoke County Prosecutor's office in 1975 that prosecuted Green for the murder, which began on the Little Rock Air Force Base in Jacksonville and was consummated in Lonoke County.

McCastlain, the current prosecutor, has asked the governor to reconsider, saying of Green's sentence, "Life is life."

Jegley has asked the governor for a moratorium on commutations and asked the general assembly to look into the matter.


Old "Huck" - a generous man with murderers.

6. Your hope is well justified!

Here he is in Fox today. He denies completely denying any involvement in the first parole, Dumond. This is a complete lie on his part. What a fool. He's done for period. The Arkansas Times, alternative powerhouse in Little Rock, and other papers down there are fierce (The Leader) and have the facts solid. There's already an attack on Murray Waas from the right, the original reporter who broke this in 2002. You are right! He's toast!

New Republican presidential frontrunner Mike Huckabee is "categorically" denying that while governor of Arkansas he tried to pressure the parole board to release a convicted rapist who later went on to rape and murder a Missouri woman.

Huckabee, who is surging in recent primary polls, has been called on to defend his record, following reports that he played an active role in seeking the release of prisoner Wayne Dumond.

"No. I did not. Let me categorically say that I did not," Huckabee said Tuesday, adding that while governor he denied a request for Dumond's commutation.
