I just read a report from the RSPB concerning some forelock-tugging inbred who has been convicted of Britain's worst raptor poisoning incident.
The now "former" gamekeeper was caught with nine dead buzzards on his quadbike.
He also had a banned pesticide and a poison, Phosdrin, in his possession.
Quite apart from the above, which alone, IMHO, should have resulted in at least a ten year stretch in solitary, the report also notes that he was guilty of a "breach of a firearms certificate"
His "punishment"?.......................10 weeks suspended sentence, and £1100 costs, and some "strong words" for the shooting community from the judge............
How can this be?

"The Dromia Rule"
Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.
If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

I agree the sentence is a joke , not much of a deterrent.His "punishment"?.......................10 weeks suspended sentence, and £1100 costs, and some "strong words" for the shooting community from the judge............
