Update: Bear Illegally Shot

© 2009 Albert A Rasch

After yesterday's report on the illegal killing of a bear in Gulf County Florida, I was reminded that good journalism requires one to do his fact checking.

This morning I called on Investigator Steve Thomas for clarification and confirmation.

Investigator Thomas told me that the bear was indeed shot outdoors, on Mr. Colson's lease, under a feeder. Investigator Thomas clarified that there were no extenuating circumstances; it was an indeed an illegal act.
