Here's his mugshot I found


Lives in Columbiana County on Dyke Rd below the dam on Lake Tomahawk. He is the Lead foreman for Honeywell in Fombell PA.

Gawd, sometimes I just love the internet!! The guy messing with legally set traps in NV not long ago is apparently in hot water. I'm SO glad!

Will be making a call to the Pennsylvania Game Commission in a few hours. With everything I found this evening they should be able to AT LEAST pay him a visit at work.

I had a post that got deleted from the thread. I guess they seem more concerned with keeping the thread on topic of Ohio rut updates.

So walking home from the line today I get near the property line and notice 3 tree stands out in the woods. I slow down and see they are stuck on perfectly good oaks. Now I hate tree stands as much as the next guy but I hate cripple sticks even more. I hate seeing anything suffer, and these things were strangling those trees for 2 years in a row. So I cross over into my place and go home to get my sp-10 . Come back over to the line walk 200 yds down into a POSTED woods and put several super duty copper buffered tri-loads through these things. So I’m sure I broke a few laws but I don’t really care, I hate seeing any live tree suffer. Was I right or wrong?

Overly concerned with protecting one their own. Says something about the Mod over there.

Well it seems the state of Pennsylvania doesn't really give a hoot. No law broken as far as they are concerned. State law doesn't allow for them to pursue trespassing charges unless the land owner files the complaint.

No laws against molesting legally set traps or animals caught in them in PA? That sucks.

Sad truth is,trappers are way way down on the priority list,even within the PGC.

Is the trapper who owns the trap a member on here? I was contacted by a PGC officer saying he has the trap and coyote. He is holding them for evidence in this crime. If the Trapper is a member, get with me and I will provide the name and phone number of the officer.

Glad to hear they may actually do something to him. I'm a regular visitor on Archerytalk but they definitely are about protecting their own with no regard to broken laws. I've been in numerous trapping related posts over there and trust me when I say we're the minority.

I'm so glad I have the ability trap on my family's property, away from varmints like this.
