Update: UNION COUNTY, Ark. (KSLA) - Our CBS affiliate KSLA (http://on.kthv.com/x7sY6F) reports the man wanted for murder and kidnapping in Arkadelphia is dead after a shootout with authorities. Donald Hux, 36, allegedly shot and killed Sandy Huckabee (http://on.kthv.com/w0PzB1), then kidnapped Huckabee's wife Amy and their children. Huckabee's body was found in a home in Arkadelphia. Huckabee is a first cousin of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.Amy Huckabee is Hux's ex-wife. KSLA reports she is dead as well but authorities are not saying how.
Donald Hux, 36 pictured above was last seen driving a tan 2005 Chevrolet extended cab truck with the license plate 487-MDZ. He is armed and extremely dangerous.
On Sunday Donald Hux stormed into the home of his ex-wife and current her husband. He killed her new husband Sandy Carl Huckabee and kidnapped Amy Huckabee along with the 3 children. The children were dropped off at his parents home, they are safe, but Amy is still missing.
Amy Huckabee's husband Sandy who was murdered yesterday is the cousin to former Governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee. If this tragedy sheds light on intimate partner violence that leads to homicide, I say sound the alarms. The former Governor is also a popular weekend talk show host on Fox. Mike Huckabee has the opportunity to educate the public about the dangers of intimate partner homicide. He has a national platform to educate the world about how victims of intimate partner violence can stay alive. The national stage includes a public service announcement that could include the new site Document The Abuse.com.
Amy Huckabee is still missing
Amy had been threatened by her former husband for months. Those threats extended from when he was serving time in jail for assault. Why the heck someone didn't file additional charges while Donald Hux was behind bars is unknown at this time.
Any one with information is being asked to contact the Union County Sheriff's office at 870-864-1970.
Document The Abuse contains vital information on how the EAA can support each case of abuse from the perspective of the first responders and advocates, to an appearance in court. It explains the legal benefits to the abuse victim, whether they are able to testify or not, how their words are forever documented and hold up in court, much like a Living Will.

I read this post with interest as it reminded me of another Fox News employee in Connecticut, Alice Morrin, who died under very tragic circumstances - hiding in a closet texting for her life...
ReplyDeleteI hope Mike Huckabee AND Fox News use their influence in the right way... For a summary of the story from Fox News see a summary of Alice's murder in 2009, see:

Respectfully,

I am very appalled as to how the justice system failed Amy and her family. I worked with this loving woman and mother, and now her children have no mother! She did all she could possibly do to protect herself almost to the point of begging for help and no one did anything. What a tragedy and senseless loss. How can anyone possibly explain this.
ReplyDeleteCornelia, if you contact me via email at murphymilano@gmail.com I would like to speak with you regarding a possible radio show so her murder just not remain as silent as the crime. Susan
