Well I'm glad you put your conscience at ease by "fessing up". You admit you messed up and thats a plus.

However I'm leary of you getting any "break" because of your honesty. I've seen this scenerio played out before, by my cousin. He fessed up too, and was told by the Game Warden it was the right thing to do. The Judge could have cared less. Full fine and humiliation. As humans we make mistakes, and I don't claim to be above making them. All I can say is know your laws and if you mess up..they get paid to catch you.

I'm not sure I would confess after what they did to him! But good luck maybe your situation will be different.
