What I don't under stand they say he is going to loose his hunting rights????? BIG DEAL!!!! He wasn't hunting legally in the first place. So they should increase the time in jail and the fine.

this is sad. so young and so dumb, way to many times. more evidence of not having positive role models in a kids life.
.............young and dumb, but still an adult. His ol' man probably taught him.

Other than his poaching problem he may not be a menace to society. I did not see where he has faced any other charges. I disagree with taking him out of society, putting him in prison, and making him a ward of the state for all of us to support. Sentence him to mass amounts of public service and keep him productive and accountable for his actions. Throwing him in jail would be too easy and simply cost money.

Hypocrite huh? I am not placing a deers life above a humans in any way shape or form. He broke the law (several), and should pay the piper. If you think your mentorship would be a good thing then have at it, but for me I say money talks, and if time is needed so be it.
We still have a high crime rate, because our prison/legal system is pussified. Has no teeth!! Felons have more rights than the rest of us.
What are your ideas about being creative to solve these problems? I am not in the legal world, but am frustrated by all those that abuse the system (NOT JUST WITH POACHING)

Somehow i dont think that a ban on legally taking an animal is going to change his behavior much. He took 3 illegally...meaning he has no regard for the laws ANYHOW..what is one more law to break going to do? Some prison time might mean that he is not out and ABLE to poach for a few years...but I'd BET that he goes RIGHT back to it after he gets out.
That's OK. When he's caught doing it again, it will be a firearms charge added to poaching charges with a lot of time involved for a convicted felon. In addition, you can bet there are a few 19 year old young men in MT who will now seriously consider their actions when an out-of-season trophy muley presents an opportunity.
You can't change the sociopaths but you can influence society by strictly enforcing existing laws. I wish we'd be this tough in WA on poaching. We aren't.
