Pretty sad. To be able to legally take several trophy animals and not be satisfied. I hope they slam him with maximum fines and jail time.

I’ve heard of “trespass fees” before. Pretty sneaky way of getting around “not selling” the actual tag.

Makes me want to buy 640+ acres in unit 54...

20 years in prison sounds reasonable if I was the judge.

We don’t have many officers, only 1 for my county now but they do good work. Been helping mine out since last year who is currently building a pretty damn good case.

Wildlife violations across the board should be steeper than they are.

I would think this could also effect his employment since he is in a high profile position.

I think this old boy has what they call FU money…

He had a dream season lined up (legally) and still cheated/poached….i don’t get it?

I’m curious if more charges are to come for the guy that bought these tags. What about the other landowner that have been selling there tags.

I Don’t get it either. But like I always say it’s a good thing we don’t understand it because you would have to be like them to understand them. I would’ve been thrilled for a season with half the animals he could legally kill.

If found guilty they need to really start imposing massive judgements

[ghosthunter]

All the money to hunt where ever he wants and he cheats.

Just dumb.

It does, but they’ll probably fine him $2000 and credit for time served and he will do the same next season
