I have not been following this thread for a while but now I'll need to keep in the loop.

I edited out the names / towns in that list as this is not reliable enough to be presented as fact here. I'm not a lawyer or law enforcement so I don't know where the line can get crossed so I'm erring on the side of caution.

Ken, I don't doubt your skills or values in bringing that info up to post. My point is that is hard, maybe even irresponsbile, for us in a non "offical" capacity to bring those names on the site.

If this list was generated by a law enforcement office in an offical capacity, we could run with the alleged poachers. If this was generated by an official media outlet say the local paper or TV station, we could reference that.

Woody: While I am with you and support your comments, I removed the names for the reasons listed above and I ask you to do the same. At this point these are comments / hearsay / He Said She Said and probably don't live up to the level of acceptable evidence to bring forth...

If they are a poaching, I really DO hope they are nailed for it.

We've had times in the past where people's names have been brought up second and third hand and usually need to go an edit them. This is one of those cases.

Thanks
