Former RNC Chair, Haley Barbour, Pardons over 200 including Rapists and murderers
This is strange, Haley Barbour is leaving the Governorship... and on the way out has pardoned over 200 criminals, these ain't the scofflaws, these are some bad dudes...
Geez the NY Daily News should use spellcheck, it is trustee not trustie. So he had 200 Trustees working at the Governor's mansion??? That sounds like a lot.. Outgoing Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour pardoned nearly 200 people, including convicted murderers* - NY Daily News Quote:

Always hate it when politicians do this crap. Taking justice away from the victims families is awful.

Its Obamas fault.

On the surface I despise this practice too. I think governors and presidents should have the authority to pardon people, but that it should only be used in the most exceptional of circumstances. I do think there are cases where a pardon is appropriate, but without knowing all 200 here, I'd guess there are a lot of questionable uses of his governors authority.

Was he pissed because his political career was over? The article mentions that three of the murders were "grisly". One murder happened in 2001......Is this some type of reverse psychology for capital punishment?

We'll see what he has to say .... 189 of the 215 were already out of prison before today ... so we're talking about 26 people. Very strange this custom they have of granting clemency for people who worked at the mansion ... that is messed up.
So tomorrow's Clarion-Ledger is supposed to have his statemen www.clarionledger.com Quote:

They may be revoked because there was a requirement of publishing a request 30 days before granting it and it may not have been done. |
