I think many reading all this are like me, in that they don't want to see anyone "burned at the stake" due to false assumptions. Seems I see that almost daily in a myriad of issues, corrupt cancel culture, etc., and it brings home to me that it's better to let a guilty man walk than to burn an innocent one.
NONE of us reading this really know what exactly has transpired, or if we do, certainly haven't adequately shown the evidence to the rest of us.
Having seen such myself, it is also possible the particular officer was "set up" as hunting over bait. For all most of us know, he could be completely innocent of what it "appears" he's guilty. Most of us have witnessed others being "set up", and it's certainly possible the person who first reported impropriety poured the bait?
I don't know, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt, until solid evidence presents.
If he was knowingly doing what some have accused, shame on him, as that would make him more the problem than the solution. In fact, his repercussions should be at least the maximum allowed by law if proven purposefully guilty of hunting turkeys over bait and teaching that to his young sons.
In the meantime, innocent until proven guilty.
