WTH is wrong with people. They need to be taken out of the gene pool.

Four adults and two juveniles are facing more than 175 state jail felony and Class A misdemeanor charges after an investigation of a poaching case in Leon County
The charges stem from what the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department described Wednesday as “a surreal chain of poaching events between June 4 and Aug. 29 (that involved) the illegal killing of at least 68 white-tailed deer, numerous other wildlife species and livestock, and the indiscriminate and widespread destruction of public and private property.”

bang hope they rot in jail

You have to wonder what type of "parenting" these people had at home.. It amazes me that people can be so callous, and just plain sick within themselves. The only next logical step from killing animals, is killing people. Glad they got caught. They need lot's of jail time, and lot's of psychological counseling. Eventually they will be free, and they will be reproducing.. What type of kids do you think they will raise? It's a cycle people. Let's break the cycle. Castration is a good place to start. You get to keep your life, but you won't bring forth any more life like you..

That homemade suppressor part, should be turned over to the Feds, for some charges with serious time attached.

This is so sad to hear. People like this give all us REAL hunters and sportsmen bad names. Really like how they pointed out this is NOT how hunters act. Happy hunting friends. flag

That's "Apocalypse Now" type crap. Gotta be meth heads. There's no "rehabilitating" these losers. When they're let out, they'll just do more stupid stuff, or, move on to murder.

When I heard gunshot(s) after dark while at the ranch, I assumed it is night time hog hunters.

Who in the world would want to kill a blue heron? That's just really juvinle type stuff. I guess this stuff has always happened, but hopefully it's getting less often.

I worked for a man for a short time who owns a hunting ranch from southlake. I quit working for after riding around in his truck with him when he grabbed his glock and started firing at a heron on a stock tank like it was the thing to do. He missed every shot as it was about 100 yards away otherwise I would have reported him.

Woof, that's quite the list!

I wonder how they will treat the wildlife counts..."at least" 68 WTD...various other species, like they do in mitigation where each item has a price tag.....a fish, 10 cents, a plant, 1 cent...into felonies, state, federal counts etc...

And I'm also wondering if they'll bring in the Special Rangers to prosecute for the livestock. I would almost think they could make more haste tagging them with 6 counts of livestock crime to get the ball rolling while TPWD sorts out how they are going to charge for the approximate wildlife damage....sheesh, hacking a dang cow to death with a dang machete?!


It's hard to feel sorry for someone with one leg who shoots themself in the foot.

I would bet that they were involved in the investigation. But I would imagine that since they have already been arrested, they wouldn't need to call them in after the fact.
