ex gov. Huckabee had things to hide

http://www.nwanews.com/story.php?paper=adg§ion=News&storyid=179261


Huckabee left computers, fund gutted


Former Gov. Mike Huckabee depleted the governor’s office emergency fund in the final weeks of his administration in part to pay for the destruction of computer hard drives in his office.

That left Gov. Mike Beebe, who replaced Huckabee on Jan. 9, with no emergency funds for the last half of fiscal 2007.

-snip-

“All drives have been subsequently crushed under the supervision of a designee of your office,” wrote Gary Underwood, the agency’s chief technology officer and a former Huckabee staff member.

Beebe has asked the Legislature to replenish the $ 500, 000 emergency fund, but a legislative committee has so far rejected his request.

-snip-

Asked whether “crushing” hard drives should be considered a criminal offense of destroying state property, Beebe said he didn’t know.

-long snip, lots of stuff going on -
