What sick idiots. I’ve never seen or heard of ANY hunter ever doing anything like this. Maybe I just live a sheltered life?

Those jackasses shouldn’t be allowed to hunt.

I don't do FB ever.

Can't watch it.
Am guessing what they did though.

That's why I wear a pistol. For
finish up shots.

They were not hunters. Just some punks that happened upon this wounded buck thinking how many 'hits' they will get on FB.
Hope LE requests that the JP gives up the max. Doubt harassing wildlife carries any serious fine or jail time though. Didn't watch to the end. Might be some other charges besides.

The best part of that bunch ran down their daddys leg..What they need is a good old fashion ass whipping..

I don't do face book but maybe someone should call DNR or Fish and Game and turn these assholes in.

someone did

One kids stepfather is the chief of police in town and yes they were hunting. The worthless PGC is said to be investigating but to do that they must first get their heads out of their asses. The PGC is more interested in busting someone for having a pet squirrel in the garage than actually enforcing game laws. Too many kids fresh out of college with little or no actual experience outdoors running the agency these days.

my guess is PGC is working to put together a solid case. I was listening to a podcast with a PGC officer and he was telling a tale from years ago where they were building a case but State Police & another agency had a larger case in the works on the same people so they had to hold up their case a bit to allow the others to build their cases which carried heavier sentences.

no point in running to the courthouse with one video and maybe get thrown out on some technicality when you can walk to the courthouse knowing the bases are all covered

While I agree with you about case building I no longer have any faith in the PGC. What other not for profit gov. org has 72 million dollars in a fund they were not aware of until an external audit that was demanded by the tag buyers themselves uncovered it?
At a time I was a DPG for them seeing the underbelly of the org and it disgusted me to the point I quit.

Teens Charged With Felonies

"Brookville Police Chief Vince Markle identified one of the teens in the video as his 18-year-old stepson; however, authorities say no favoritism will be shown in the case."

True.

But they do hunt, and are found all around the world, and give us all a bad name.

Teen pleads guilty, loses hunting license for 15 years in Jefferson County deer abuse case


BRIAN C. RITTMEYER | Friday, May 29, 2020 12:48 p.m.



An 18-year-old seen on video torturing a wounded white-tailed deer in November will serve two years of probation and have his hunting license revoked for 15 years as part of a plea deal, the state Game Commission announced Friday.

Alexander Brock Smith, of Brookville, pleaded guilty May 6 in Jefferson County court to a second-degree misdemeanor count of cruelty to animals and summary counts of disturbance of game or wildlife, unlawful possession of game or wildlife, using lawful devices or methods while hunting and failure to wear the required amount of fluorescent orange while hunting.

In addition to probation and the revocation of his hunting license, Smith will have to perform community service at an animal shelter and through presentations to hunter education classes and sportsmen’s clubs. He was fined $1,650.

Other charges, including more serious felony counts that were filed in January, were dropped in exchange for the guilty pleas, the game commission said.

Smith was charged along with a 17-year-old whose case was resolved in Jefferson County juvenile court Thursday, the commission said. Juvenile court records are not public.

Videos that Smith recorded of the Nov. 30 incident and shared through the social media Snapchat platform were seen by thousands of people worldwide, leading to significant public outrage. The video was turned in to the Game Commission, which launched an investigation.

The 17-year-old shot and wounded a white-tailed buck when he and Smith hunted together on property owned by Smith’s family in Beaver Township, Jefferson County, according to the Game Commission and court documents.

With the buck wounded and immobilized, the teens videotaped themselves kicking and stomping the deer in the head multiple times, according to court papers.

According to the juvenile hunter, who said he had run out of ammunition, he and Smith, who didn’t have a gun, were trying to kill the wounded deer, investigators said.

Game Commission Executive Director Bryan Burhans said that actions depicted in the video are not representative of the hunting community.

“From the start, some of the loudest voices calling for justice in this case were those of hunters, who care deeply about wildlife and have always stepped up to protect it,” Burhans said. “That mindset, passed down through the generations, might be the biggest reason we enjoy healthy and sustainable wildlife populations today.”
