    Colorado hunter banned from 48 states after poaching spree.....

    A hunter from Colorado Springs has been permanently banned from hunting in 48 states, including Colorado, after he pleaded guilty to several poaching charges across the state.


    Colorado Parks and Wildlife said hearing examiner Steven Cooley decided last week to permanently suspend hunting privileges for Iniki Vike Kapu, 28, after he pleaded guilty, KMGH-TV reported.


    Colorado is a member of the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact, meaning the lifetime hunting ban also extends to the other 47 member states, not including Hawaii and Massachusetts.


    Kapu was accused of killing 12 deer, 2 turkeys and a bighorn sheep ram across three Colorado counties.


    Kapu also pleaded guilty to illegal possession of three or more big game animals. He was fined $4,600 and sentenced to six months in jail and three years of supervised probation in Fremont County as part of a plea agreement, officials said. He also surrendered the weapons he used for poaching.


    “Iniki Kapu is viewed as a serious threat to Colorado’s wildlife, and his violations are among the worst. The severity and level of indifference for wildlife in this case are rarely seen and cannot be tolerated.”.....snip~

    He's lucky. At one time people could be shot for poaching.

    I was thinking if he is Native American Indian what can they do other than try to hook him up for trespassing on Private property.

    He sure doesn't look Hawaiian. His eyes do look almond shaped though, probably half.

    Like any habitual criminal, as soon as he gets his papers back from the state, he's going to revert.
    That ban isn't going to stop him.
