Hunter shot to death in eastern WA

[DRobnsn]

Talking the type of people that live up that way...all to familiar with the "hillbilly" and "off the grid" type that live in the parts of NE WA

Gotcha, don't think I was trying to defend whoever this loser is that took this mans life. In no way was that my intent. I to am hoping for a quick outcome for this guy's family. I'm sure my uncle knew him he seems to know everyone from the grays harbor area.

One thing we need to do is keep up on this and don't let it get swept under the rug like so many other news story's that fizzle out after the big headline.

I ran into a guy while hunting over the weekend and we were just chatting when somehow the subject came up.....turns out the guy I was talking with told me that was his friend and he lived in who was killed and lived in  Chesaw as well ! A few minutes after leaving I started thinking how strange the conversation was. He was with two other guys in a jeep and had drove up a gated road which was locked.  .  I had several elk right of above me and they split after hearing the jeep. I was annoyed and wondered how they got up the road since it was gated. Apparently his friend worked for the FS and had a key to the gate.

   I can guarantee you Mike never lived in Chesaw, Too many rumors.

Since I was over there Grouse hunting I was a little concerned about this.  The locals were angry at the shooter. The community spends a lot of money to lure Fishermen, hunters and antique collectors to the area. The land owner just kicking open the door and cutting loose doesn't add up. The locals said there was more too it, there was previous conflict. The true story will come out. Tragedy anyway you look at it.

wayne- sorry I didn't word it correctly after re-reading it.  The hunter I ran into said he was the one that lived in Chesaw and was friends with the person who was killed.  Very sorry for your friend.

The sheriff seems to be holding his cards close. Very little official info. They know more than they are telling. They need to get the shooter, lock him up and throw away the key. Sorry for your friend, Wayne.

    No problem, Way too many rumor's floating around, We are just going to have wait for
                  the investigation to get completed, I have heard at least 20 versions. Once it is out we can
                  have a a real discussion.

That's probably the best decision.

My exSNLs grandpa just built a place on Cow Camp rd. over the last couple years. He Retired as the Pastor from the Custer Church in Custer Wa. He was Pastor for years there. Quite the man Marvin is. At 76 I could not keep up with him. I was 56 and healthy before Cancer.Met a few of the people and they were no different than You and me. Some just want to be left alone. . Feel sorry for the Family and friends the knew the victim. But I'm sure the facts will come out.

oh I bet these were educated contributing members of society who did this

I'm sorry, since when do you have to be educated to be a contributing member of society?

You might have something... Look at president obama.    Just saying!!!

The Omak Chronicle had an article today, and they are still waiting on the crime lab results. As a "local", I'm curious how this plays out.
