It may not be new news, but I thought I'd share this article. Punks like this make me sick.

Nice to see a real penalty, not just a slap on the wrist.

Wow, 5 years! I wonder how much of that he'll actually serve.

For crimes like this _-hole committed,  I think he should have gotten more time in the clink.  How about 2 years for each buck........so 20 years.
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

5 years is a long time, but that's a lot of big bucks and you know he'll be out a lot sooner. But it's something. At least they're trying to sentence poachers.
