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

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.

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.
