She met him through the internet where he portrayed himself as a "big game hunter" ?
Poor judge of character.
Poor judge of character.
That should read 'deer poaching', in no way was he hunting.
6 months before she contacted authorities?
Wow. It is illegal to sell deer meat in NJ. Hope the restaurants get fined too. People are crazy!
If the Deer meat comes from a deer farm It is legal. Deer that is taken by hunters must not be sold and is against the law.
Another case of a criminal having a gun and a 30-06? I am sure that the liberals will jump on this one also.
Plenty of restaurants in NJ have venison on their menus. As dogg pointed out, it's usually farm raised. My question is how do game dinners at churches and clubs get around using meat from hunters and charging for it? Tickets are typically open to the public. Im not against these dinners in anyway and actually love attending them and getting a true taste of Americana at its finest. Just wondering what the protocol was far abiding the laws.
Mike,
Game dinners have always been excepted for non-profits. Not sure how some restaurants like the Pic pull that off each year if it is in fact wild venison that they are selling.
Here is the text from the NJ Game Laws:
"It is illegal to sell deer meat, deer antlers or any part of a deer except deer hides, tails and the lower portion of the legs. However, nonprofit organizations conducting wild game dinners for social and fundraising events may offer game or furbearer meat (the sale of which is otherwise prohibited) provided that the meat has been harvested, stored and processed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations."

Scott, thanks for the info on deer meat. I go to a deer and beer at Goose Pond gun club in Tabernacle each March and I was wondering what the law was on this activity. I am glad that it is legal.
