re: #251 reine.de.tout

I haven’t seen any indication that Huckabee gave a religious reason for letting the guy go - what I saw indicated it had something to do with the guy’s age. Apparently Huckabee ignored all the info about the guy’s behavior. But I haven’t seen anything indicating there was a reason connected to religion. I’m trying to figure out why that’s being discussed here by some as if it was the case.

I asked the question because if you read the article above, it’s clear that Clemmons was obsessed with religion, and used it to manipulate people. And there’s a long history of convicts using religion to trick their way out of prison.

Apparently the prosecutors were strongly opposed to Huckabee’s granting clemency. Why did he ignore their objections?

And Huckabee is a hardcore fundamentalist, who wants to amend the US Constitution to make it more in line with “Biblical principles.”

There are serious reasons to ask that question.
