Since he's running for President, I thought more people should know about Mike Huckabee letting a convicted rapist go free because of who his victim was related to (and the consequences):
Arkansas Times article
Cliff's Notes:
Distant cousin of Bill Clinton's gets raped.
Rapist Wayne Dumond is convicted and sent to prison.
Wingnuts raise hell because a Clinton was involved, so there must be a conspiracy somewhere.
Huckabee leans on the parole board (appointed by him) to cut Dumond loose, and they do.
Dumond murders a woman 2 years later.

A theory that someone was given a harsher sentence because he committed a sexual crime and was related to Clinton is barely plausible. Light treatment because the victim was related to Clinton? Asinine

Take out the Clinton stuff entirely and wouldn't it still be a complete deal-breaker for a presidential campaign?
