I'm still waiting for the moron in Sheboygan to tell us what Huckabee did
to influence the parole board to release Clemmons.

And Washington does have a death penalty and Clemmons will either get it,
or better yet, die in a gun battle when they find him.

He was wounded badly during his murder spree and hopefully he'll bleed to death.
