RE: Poacher Busted - CO Unit 61
i agree that something NEEDED to be done, no question, he broke the law, he needs to pay... $12k just seems excessive... revoke/suspend his hunting/fishing privileges for 10yrs or so, fine him 1-2000 bucks, maybe confiscate the weapon (archery gear in this case)... that seems much more appropriate for the crime... c'mon now, guys that get busted with drugs often don't pay fines that high (which should scare many of you)...
