High probability he was poaching to pay his meth bill

How much does sell the kg of poached meat vs the street price of meth? How many hours per night per week does he has to be out to pay for his fix? Still has to pay for the fuel and bullets as well....

You lot are pretty quick off the mark to put him up on a cross though...have none of you's ever been naughty yourselves?
Poaching has been going on for decades but I guess nowadays events are all based around what happened to that lady who was cleaning her teeth wearing a head lamp?
There could and most likely is more to this latest story eh.

Reasons to hang him out to dry
#Meth use
#2 spotlighting on a public road, whilst (most likely) high on Meth

I say he got off lightly

I missed the meth bit Pengy ,that being the case then shit what a predicament to be in......stupid young man.

Missed the bit about meth until most of the way through this thread, hope this doesnt become a trend. Extreme sleep-deprivation, guns, and being high, yep, thats really going to work....he should be gaoled.

fair deal. poor dogs though.

He got a large fine and his toys confiscated. the fine might be a bit of a pain to pay off at $5/week but the loss of the toys isnt going to prevent him from paying his rent or buying food or meth.
I want to see heavy handed sentences dished out left, right and center.
Examples will lead to word spreading on the street and criminals will either be more crafty or cease taking risks for small rewards.
Repeat offenders will be sent to the south island.

I doubt there are more than a handful of people on the forum that havent acted up in some way in the past, hopefully most of em have grown older and wiser.

I wounder if it was the meth that pushed up the fine, a guy Im working withs farther (and some lines men) were threatened by a neighbor. The guy was threatening to kill them and trying to kick in the front door while holding a loaded 12g, he got a $400 fine.....

Just asking if he’s got a meth habit then how did he afford 5k worth of thermals?
Plus rifle etc.

I have trouble staying awake long enough in the evenings to go spotlighting nowdays. By the sounds of it, if you snort (or whatever they do with it) a bit of this meth stuff you can go all night.

Yeah I'm getting on a bit but think I'd give the meth a big miss eh and stick to snortin Viagra, yes you can go all night lol.
