Felony? Doesnt that mean he cant be near a gun? Thats awesome if thats the case.
Foiles, 54, of Pleasant Hill, Ill., pleaded guilty to an information charging him with one misdemeanor count of unlawful sale of wildlife in violation of the Lacey Act, as well as one misdemeanor count of unlawfully taking migratory game birds in violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. At the same time, the company that operates Foiles’ hunting club, the Fallin’ Skies Strait Meat Duck Club LLC, located in Pike County, Ill., pleaded guilty to an information charging it with one felony count of unlawful sale of wildlife in violation of the Lacey Act and one felony count of making false writings in a matter within the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. According to the plea agreements filed yesterday, the government and the defendants have jointly asked the court to sentence Foiles to 13 months in prison, to be followed by one year of supervised release during which time he may not hunt or guide hunters, and to pay a $100,000 fine for which Fallin’ Skies Strait Meat Duck Club LLC agreed to serve as guarantor. Further, Foiles agreed to one additional year, following completion of his term of supervised release, during which he will not hunt or guide. The court must determine whether or not to accept the plea agreements. If the plea agreements are accepted by the court, the government has agreed to dismiss the pending felony indictment against Foiles.

Thats awesome if thats the case.The company that operates the hunting club was charged with the felonies not foiles.So if a company is charges with a felony how does that work? I mean if a company is charges is any specific person resposible or is it a fine? He was part owner of the club so I'm just curious. I am actually very dissapointed with the outcome of this case. If you read the list of charges they had on him a couple misdemeanors is practically getting scot free for this guy. oops, didnt see this yet.... I agree with goosegetter.
yea he wasnt just out by himself taking too many birds... he even made his clients take too many birds also!!! basically sucking them into poachin also!!! thats just the stuff they proved!!! imagine what other kind of stupid crap he was doin!
