He kidnapped his ex-wife (who is married to Huckabee's cousin now) and their three children after killing her husband. Drove to his parents house close to here and left the kids. Cops chased him down and he shot & killed ex-wife before cops killed him.

BTW, he killed his brother in 1991 because he asked him to turn tv down so he could sleep.

Cover him with tuna juice and lock him in a dog pen with a tiger from the zoo.

I think we would all be surprised at how many mean, sick SOBS are walking among us.

Former governor Mike Huckabee sent us an email, saying.
“I’ve been in Washington all day. Sandy was my first cousin. Our mothers were sisters and we grew up as kids in Hope. It’s been a horrible day for everyone, especially those kids.”

What can we say. Some people just need to be dead. I wish someone would have killed him long ago.
My thoughts and prayers for the family.

Mrs. Huckabee, of Arkadelphia, was kidnapped early Sunday after Hux broke into her home and shot and killed her husband, Sandy C. Huckabee, a cousin of former Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Sandy Huckabee was killed at the couple’s residence at 2304 Forrest Park Drive on the north side of Arkadelphia about 4 a.m. Sunday, said Amy Huckabee’s cousin, Alicia Hunter of Magnolia.

Huckabee was shot while he slept, Hunter said. Amy Huckabee and her three children were taken from the home but the children were dropped off at the home of Hux’s parents, she said. The parents live on Murray Lane in El Dorado.

Columbia County Sheriff Mike Loe said Sunday afternoon that his deputies searched for Hux earlier in the day in the Atlanta area. They had information that Hux may have a deer camp in the vicinity. They did not find Hux or the vehicle he’s believed to be using.

Union County Sheriff Mike McGough issued a statement Sunday afternoon asking that the public be on the lookout for a tan-colored 2005 model Chevrolet extended cab pick-up truck with an Arkansas license plate reading 487 MZD. Hux was officially wanted in Clark County on charges of capital murder, kidnapping, possession of a firearm by certain persons and aggravated residential burglary.

According to Sandy Huckabee’s Facebook page, Mr. Huckabee was self-employed as a psychological examiner. He also worked for ECCEL in El Dorado in a similar position. Huckabee was a 1979 graduate of Hope High School and received degrees in biblical studies and psychology from Ouachita Baptist University in 1990. He held a master of science degree in clinical psychology from Northwestern State University, graduating in 1992.

Amy Huckabee was a Springhill, La., native and graduated from Springhill High in 1993. She graduated from Southern Arkansas University in Magnolia with a degree in elementary education in 1997 and was a teacher in Arkadelphia.

Hux, 36, had been in and out of legal trouble in the states of Texas and Louisiana during the past two years. Most recently, Hux pleaded guilty in October to a misdemeanor assault charge in Caddo Parish, Louisiana. He was first charged with two counts of attempted aggravated sexual assault.

A poster purporting to be Hux posted two statements Saturday on the El Dorado, Arkansas Forum page of topix.com, claiming that the sexual assault charges against him were false. “If you really know me you know I’m a good person. If you think otherwise you don’t know me at all,” the post said in part.

May 18, 2010

An Arkansas man is indicted by a Lubbock County Grand Jury for an assault at a local truck stop.

34-year-old Donald Hux was arrested in Union County, Arkansas last week.

Lubbock Police say Hux is a truck driver for a company based in Arkansas.

Detectives say back in March, Hux stopped at the Chisum Truck Stop on the Slaton Highway.

That’s where he is accused of assaulting a woman with a knife in the cab of his semi.

Police were able to locate and arrest Hux in Arkansas.

They now believe he may be responsible for similar crimes in other states.

“Besides the one we have here in our city, we were contacted by Caddo Parish, Louisiana, where those detectives also advised us that he was also a suspect in a possible sexual assault there,” Lubbock Police Sgt. Jimmy Pachall says.

Hux was indicted on attempted aggravated sexual assault charges.

He is being held in the Union County, Arkansas jail on a $250,000 bond.

El Dorado man facing charges in Louisiana

The El Dorado long-haul truck driver who was arrested on May 13 in Smackover for two counts of attempted aggravated sexual assault that allegedly occurred on March 19 in Lubbock, Texas, is facing additional charges in Louisiana, according to officials there.

Donald Hux, 34, of 186 Murray Lane, El Dorado, has been charged with one count of aggravated rape in Caddo Parish, Lousiana, a spokesman for the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Department told the News-Times this week, declining to offer further details.

Hux is currently in the Union County Jail on a $250,000 bond awaiting extradition to Texas. According to the Louisiana investigators, Hux will likely not come before the court system in Louisiana until Texas satisfies their case against him.

If Ann Hunter married him after all that, it was foolhardy.

God have mercy on the murdered husband and wife, and may those poor children be taken into a loving home.

And she did marry him after all that - Donald Hux was 16 when he killed his brother.

BTW, he killed his brother in 1991 because he asked him to turn tv down so he could sleep.

Why is he free? Why is he alive?

Most of the south knows what a pain it can be to have a brother blare the TV during nap time. No jury would convict past 6 months down here.

I don’t know about that; I’m not from Arkansas. But any woman who marries a murderer is beyond foolish. Throw in animal killing - got yourself a genuine psychopath, lady. How many years did he serve anyway? Not many.

    That search ended Sunday night when     authorities located Hux in a vehicle owned by his father, and then exchanged gunfi re.     Hux was announced deceased on scanner traffi c shortly after shots were exchanged.     Offi cial word was released by Union County Coroner Curtis Butterfi eld that Hux and his hostage, Amy Huckabee, were deceased at the location where the gunfi re took place. There has been no offi cial word on events that led to the fi nal tragic outcome.

    The Arkadelphia Police Department issued a warrant for Donald Lavelle Hux Sunday, after a man was found dead in his home in Arkadelphia with his wife and children missing.

    According to a press release from the Union County Sheriff’s Offi ce released while the search continued for Hux, “Investigators determined that Hux drove from Arkadelphia to El Dorado during the early morning hours and dropped the three minor children off at a location in Union County.”

    Union County Sheriff Mike McGough said that due to a conversation Hux’s father had with Hux, Hux’s father contacted police and requested a welfare check for Huckabee, Hux’s ex-wife, which ended with the discovery of a deceased male victim, Sandy Carl Huckabee, inside her residence.

    Hux was being sought on charges for capital murder, kidnapping, possession of a fi rearm by certain persons and aggravated residential burglary.

    Reports from Arkadelphia’s Daily Siftings Herald newspaper stated that Hux was previously listed in Arkadelphia police reports for harassing communications to Amy Huckabee while Hux was in prison where he was recently serving time for assault.

Because our justice system does not recognize what a favor you are doing for society when you take matters into your own non-law-degreed hands. Lawyers and judges like to make all the decisions about who is right and who is wrong, who is good and who is evil. Furthermore, if we shot all the no-goods, and somehow they all never saw it comming and didn't shoot back, we'd still be left with less than half of our population. Would be nice to drain the swamp though!
Anyhow I once had a local no-good at gunpoint, and didn't shoot him. I keep thinking some day I'll see him on the news and regret my choice. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm going against the odds hoping he will reform.

Don’t be so hard on the guy. He can’t help it. He is who he is because he had trauma during his potty training years.
