    I can say I have never seen a deer make the channel 5 news with pics. Pretty crazy.

      Then he tried to get rid of the evidence by deleting memory cards and stated to the game warden he had another deer at he taxi or on his wall that he killed from the same property 2 years prior. Also told the game warden that “if this was a smaller deer, y’all woildnt be doing this.” Typical Criminal excuse maker who feels no guilt for his bad behavior. And if y’all think the man with the same name and date of birth who got busted one county over in 2004 for the SAME OFFENSE is not Travis, then I have some ocean front property in San Angelo to sell you. He’s shown a pattern of poaching behavior, unethical practices and lying.

      Like has already been said, those people who defended him need to come on here, man up, and apologize like any respectable man would. Eat your crow and be done with it.

      BTW, I have a copy of the arrest affidavit and the Game Warden did a dang good job of investigating this, that report is solid and detailed. Too bad he did it in Denton County, it’s a liberal DA, which is why he didn’t get any jail time, which he should have.

      People should read this again. Especially the pattern of behavior part.

          It is both a tragedy and a travesty. It all depends on how you look at it.

It'll be interesting to see if he will actually have to pay that much or not.
            Ask OJ about civil court, believe he was suited for property owned & monies earned can be confiscated. Poacher will be forced to pay even if it takes decades

            Wonder how courts came up a value of this deer ??

            Was this a felony ??

              So this multiple time poacher gets to keep on hunting once his probation is over?

                How in the world did he have a blind and feeder set up so long on someone else’s place?!

                  I am pleased you spelled "travesty" properly.

                  Sorry, but that was on a tee.

                    In reading the probable cause affidavit, it sounds like the owner lives in Switzerland. Some mgmt company here “watches” over the property. Evidently they found the blinds and put notices out but they were ignored... and it says the mgmt company admittedly hadn’t followed back up.

                            If a person is sleeping in a tree stand in order to kill a deer (state record or not) they need to reevaluate their priorities in life. Just my opinion.

                              We finally got the real story and court disposition. Time to move on. Lesson learned for all of us that needed it.

                                How many years is his license revoked for? If it’s less than a decade I say he got off light.
