You can apply for...

tags civilians can draw the tag yeah okay okay cool thanks Dave much better words than mine so hunters this hunter goes out there on the property and he's wandering around hunting legally comes across this buck carcass that is missing quote unquote choice cuts of meat and its head and then he found it odd and deer's balls

Moving on.

He found it odd.

He called the Fort Carson Conservation Law Enforcement, who then called CPW.

CPW came out, did an investigation, took tire impressions, found the shell casing, wandered around this deer carcass.

just doing a good forensic investigation.

And she found an additional deer, a doe this time, same condition without the head cut off, but choice cuts of meat taken.

And that was about it.

Um, so she does a pretty decent, uh, pretty detailed forensic investigation finds, uh,

finds the poacher's truck on camera and well that's coincidental and everything just because he was in the area doesn't mean he's the one who did it does put him in the area and so she ended up she being the CPW officer she ended up getting warrants for his truck his phone and something else I don't remember what but

found like dude's 21 years old of course he's got pictures of the thing he killed in his phone um there was evidence of it in the truck obviously the truck matched tire impressions up by the carcass uh so she finally like presses him and he breaks down and he's like yeah i did it and um i've killed six others kind of like a serial killer but with deer um so

I was worried no one would ever know.

Um, he got, he got sentenced recently.

Um,

$19,000 in fines and a 180 point assessment on his privileges to hunt with a potential for 50 state permanent lifetime ban, which I guess permanent lifetime and same words, but you know, it could be an impermanent.

You do something so fucked up that the state you fucked up in tells the other 49 states, hey, this is how bad this guy fucked up.

You guys, I'm going to Guam.

It gets banned from hunting in Guam.
