A killer's pardon sparks fear.

A convicted murderer, David Gatlin, walked into the home of his estranged (seperated but still legally married) and shot her in the head with her 6 week old baby in her arms. He also wounded one of her friends but she survived.Haley Barbour is the outgoing governor of Mississippi and has give Gatlin a pardon, releasing him from prison. Barbour will not comment on this to the press. No one knows why he did this. I don't have any thoughts to why he would possibly let this man go.link: http://www.cnn.com/2012/01/11/justice/mississippi-pardons/index.html?hpt=us_c1

  • Maybe he knew something we didn't, like maybe his wife wasn't really his wife but alien or monster trying to eat the six week old baby
  • what is this world coming to, people kill and they are let go, this is a messed up world we live in
  • why would they let someone like that go? especially since no one knew why, what if he randomly kills someone again?

  • There has to be some type of ties. Someone cant just be released without reasoning. Especially if theyre gonna go kill again. People are stupid.

  • there has to be something mentally wrong with that governor.. he also looks funny
  • I dont get this. Why would someone let him go? After he killed his wife like that. What happened to the baby? Poor kid. :( I cant believe things happen like this.
