I hadn’t heard about this little episode in Huckabee’s past until I was reading Michelle Malkin’s post on his pro-illegal alien stance which was finally highlighted by a Novak column. In reading the comments I found the reference to Huckabee’s Willy Horton!

Michelle also has the video where Huckabee talks about giving not only instate tuition for illegal aliens in Arkansas but financial aid. I’ve noted before Huckabee’s pro amnesty stance for illegal aliens:

John Fund on the other man from Hope

Huckster the Shyster

But also his questionable tax hike history – Club for Growth responds to Huckabee’s “untruthsâ€?

Regarding this new information for me………Then Governor Huckabee released from prison convicted rapist Wayne Dumond. Dumond was convicted in 1984 for the rape of a 17 year old girl for a life prison term. The rape victim who is now 40 years old tried to persuade Huckabee not to release Dumond but the Huckster let him go anyway in 1996. The following year Dumond sexually assaulted and murdered a Missouri woman. I wonder how all that “tolerance and understanding” Governor Huckabee has for the rapist and murderer will stand with victims of violent crimes.

Huckabee could face hurdles from the past – Parole of rapist haunts campaign
