This poacher may not be able to hunt in many states, or at least be able to afford to .. guns.gif http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002539318_webpoaching04.html

Don't feel sorry at all for the guy, he got off light and will probably be doing it again. He was doing it for profit and spoiling things for the hunters who play by the rules.

Banned for life from hunting in Idaho and 19 other states? No jail time, no permanent felony conviction and a $30K fine? After all of the resources spent on an 18-month investigation by Fish and Game, that’s all he gets? Sheesh, the investigation probably cost (us) several hundred thousand bucks. Good luck trying to collect the $30K. What a friggin’ joke. I have pity for the guy — that he’s led such a pitiful life.

what gets me is that they state that during this 18 months he has led several undercover investigators on hunts . ugh.. why did it take several fish and game officers several hunts to prove this guy was doing the oufitting and killing illegally...it sounds almost as bad as undercover prostitution stings where the police participate in the sexual activities during the investigation. Who's money were they using to pay this guy for his services over this period?..tax dollars hard at work?

Oh ours....same as the Seattle vice cops getting a rub and a tug from prostitutes as part of their "investigation." Jeez most undercover stings or arrests were made as soon as the perps agreed to an act. But these guys wanted to make SURE. lol.gif Well anyway this poacher gives all poachers a real bad name. agree.gif
