i can see the dnr gettin an ip address, gettin a home address, showing up at the ip holders house, lookin in the truck...finding someone elses tags and persuing it from there....it is possible they got the ip holders phone records before they came.
monitoring phone conversations i dont think so...but since all calls are recorded and stored for like 30 days, maybe they made it to the records before they were re-recorded over, but they woulda had to been real quick to get this info
they will need to find this deer head they are lookin for ..imo hard to get dna from a pic
the dnr cant stop you from callin a friend lol...just dont talk about what happened over the phone...i'd call him right now lol..
