no turkey for you.
I've started a habit of reading the hometown papers online... it's such different news than here in the Metro Cowlandia area...
One of the convicted men ... has been banned from hunting and fishing for life. He was ordered to pay $2,500 in fines after being found guilty on 54 charges related to poaching ... will also serve 60 days in jail and will be on probation for two years ... is prohibited from applying for any permits or participating in events administered by ODNR or affiliated sportsmen’s clubs or organizations. While on probation, he is not to possess any deer or turkey parts.
Ok, did you see that? 2 months in jail, banned from fishing and hunting FOR LIFE, and can't even have any venison or turkey for 2 years while he's on probation.
[Another person] was given one year of probation, plus 30 days in jail with 27 days suspended ... a five-year suspension of hunting, fishing and trapping privileges and is not to possess any turkey or deer parts while under suspension ... is also prohibited from applying for, or participating in, any events administered by ODNR or affiliated sportsmen’s clubs or organizations.
No turkey or venison for 5 years. Man, Thanksgiving's going to suck for these two.

I can just see some probation officer using this to try to make quota this Thanksgiving.
