I do believe in fairness and hearing all sides to an issue. With that, here is something from Facebook.

Here's a message to the haters! You know who you are, you trolls posting elk recipes for fun and calling us retarded:
We're not against mercy killings and mos...t of us aren't against hunting. The community is upset because nobody but that cop is saying that the animal was injured, conveniently after he hid the killing for two days. An eye witness to the killing who saw it just before (and after) it was killed said on video (see previous post) that "it was a healthy animal." So it's clear to most of us that he lied. Please don't get distracted by some of us who value animal rights or our candle light vigil Boulder-style sentimentality. We're a community worried about a crooked cop trying to get away with poaching an animal while being paid by the tax payers. The Police Chief is angry about this, as are we all. Many of us are elk hunters and eaters ourselves who just want equal treatment under the law. Most of all, we all want justice for Big Boy the elk!

Meh... another PETA type...
To my way of thinking , this is stone cold poaching . Pretty cut and dried in my mind when the " off duty " cop was actually a taxidermist who called in sick for that shift .

@ NFO. Yeah.
@ Farm.Dad
You may well be correct. Been out of town for two days. Growing up I ate a lot of poached meat. We damn sure wouldn't kill a big bull in winter for the quality of the meat.
