Game warden lawsuit

nfh · Apr 6, 2023

I been curious when this was going to happen since they waited to long to file the previous lawsuit. I feel like they're asking for a big chunk of money for silly reasons. But i will say the way Queen treated them and the way he handled the case was poor. There is some previous articles you may have to search if you want the full story on what happened that day. Shortly after this Queen retired or should i say a forced retirement.

I understand a game warden has to make some tuff choices and i know i could never do it. But from what i do know there is a long history of things that added up overtime.

Can't believe that one is still going round and round. Queen was still around in 2020 when we hunted archery back in there.

We bivy hunted back in there for two nights. I understand he spent the nights in his truck waiting for us to cut across 2Dot property on the way out

Fortunately after my buddy shot his bull the third day, Brett and Cherain gave us a ride out with the elk and all our gear so we didn't have to pack it 6 1/2 miles around a few times each. Epic day to say the least with their generous help.

As we drove away after having beers with those guys and their dudes who went 4 for 4 that morning on cows as well, Queen was seen hauling a horse trailer back there to come after us for who knows what.

After hearing what was presented in court and the other side of the story, I can't blame those guys for being upset, much less how much it cost them to defend themselves.

Such an epic place to be and hunt. Hope the new wardens are true sportsmen and help bring out the best in everyone !!!

Cheers, Pete

It's hard to believe after being acquitted that the hunters would be spending so much effort on this unless they were truly innocent and had a major axe to grind.
