Re: POACHERS
This has nothing to do with the poaching post really, but it is more about taking the law in your own hands. A while back my younger brother was hanging out at our bowling alley with some of his friends when he was accused of spilling coke on one of our neighbors truck. The neighbor came out of the bowling alley and was cusing my brother and they were both yelling when the 40 something year old neighbor grabbed my brother (a minor) by the neck and threw him to the ground. That same night the neighbors wife came to my parents house and told my farther what had happened. She said someone had seen my brother do it but she and her husband were inside. We filed charges against him for this and for a harrassing phone call. Today they had the court meeting and the judge called the neighbor, his wife, and their witness to the stand. He listened to them and everyone of them had a different story. Neighbor said my brother threw the coke at the truck and his wife said she caught my brother grinding the can into the paint. They called my brother to the stand and he told his story. Then they called my father to the stand and they asked him some stuff but they didn't let him tell about the wife coming and telling us what happened. They sent him back to the witnesses room and told him he would have a chance to come back out. (They never brought him back out.) The judge cut off both of my brothers witnesses and would not let them tell everything. He said he knew that no body would agree with his decision but he found the neighbor not guilty and even though my brother was a minor, the neighbor was only protecting his property. Everyone was shocked and they all said that if it would have been a trail by jury then the neighbor would have been found guilty. This same neighbor is also being charged for molestation and is supposedly getting off of those charges also. WHAT A MESSED UP POLITICAL SYSTEM WE HAVE.
