Concordia black bear slayer sentenced

The ransonet guy in new iberia got off with 3000 buck fine and no jail time.

But he comes from money

Its more expensive to book a legal hunt in canada for a bear

This dude should never be able to own a hunting gun or bow or buy a hunting license for the rest of his life.

Rules, laws, and sentences forbidding that activity don't hold water in Concordia parish. The only way to keep this idiot from breaking the law is to cage him. Kind of like a dog that refuses to not get in the trash, you kennel him.(or kill him)

Just seeing this, I am glad, that SOAB was poaching my buddies place in Monterey as well. I highly doubt it will do much to change his ways though.

What a shitty sentence. I was hoping he was going to get way worse. #SaveDaBears

Seventh Judicial District Judge Kathy Johnson accepted his plea and sentenced him to a $10,000 civil restitution fee for replacement value of the bear, a $950 fine, $254 in court costs, two years of probation, 120 days in the Concordia Parish Jail with 60 days suspended, suspension of his hunting license for five years and he cannot possess a firearm or bow for five years
