If Joe Deangelo was the investigator with the 14th Judicial DA's office, this case will probably never get to trial. I have PROOF that he has removed statements from case files and replaced them with very different statements to cover for the thief. He then assisted this person in getting a job with the Moffatt Co Sheriff Office. He has even told suspects that he is an attorney and discouraged or prohibited them from seeking council. See in internet search “joe deangelo, Ft. wayne, indiana police officer”, and see if you are comfortable knowing that this is what we have in our DA's office.
Sure makes us wonder who we can trust. Sure is not DeAngelo or DA Jeremy Snow. They were equal participants in this case.
Stand by for the Colorado Attorney General to be involved.

I have followed this case since it first made the press. It is interesting to see that one of the lead investigators, DeAngelo, is seeking the truth and justice here. If he is indeed doing just that, it is a new path he is following. He should not question someones' story or honesty considering some of the things he has done. Look back at the story on th net “joseph deangelo, ft wayne, indiana police officer”. Also, look at the local case where he not only allowed but encouraged a previous officer to change his story, that could have have led to a FELONY conviction to a completely different version and thus the case never was completed. Yes, I can and do plan to furnish proof positive to the proper authorities in the near future.
I sincerly hope that the defense attorneys in this case do question integrity here and let the public know what kind of investigator we have in the DA's office.
This is not an attempt to sway the outcome of this case, but simply a great opportunity to inform the public. I will gladly furnish this proof to the prosecution or defense attorneys.

please pardon my typo.
I really meant HAYstack–not hatstack.

The ranchers that charge a fee for hunting are doing this as a way of harvest or making a living off the land. this is much the same as harvesting a bale of hay. Sometimes the rate is very high and is more than a working class person could pay.
But in defence of the rancher, if your employer offered you a salary much more than you felt deserved would you refuse it?.
There is no defence for doing something so despicable as the ranchers are accused of doing.
Sure they requested help from the DOW but a follow-up email or a personal visit could have resulted in a lawful solution to their problem. DOW quite frequently offers game damage permits that the ranchers could sell to recoup their losses. DOW also can offer reimbursement for loss of crop such as grazing or from your hatstack. They will also furnish—free of charge– and deliver fence panels to keep the animals out of your hay.
We all need a solution to this problem but let's play by the rules.

Prosecution is the responsibility of the Judicial District in which the offense occurs. The Colorado DOW is no different from the Colorado State Patrol in the prosecution process. However; the DA can request a prosecution by a different Judicial District Prosecutor in the case of a conflict of interest. This was the case when the sheriff of Routt County was charged with DUI and illegal possession of a firearm. That case is being prosecuted by the 5th judicial prosecutor.
Sad but true, our DA is likely to either plea-bargain this to hunting without a license or charge the deer and elk with tresspassing and say that the ranchers could use the “make my day' law as their defense. Nothing done by that office surprises us anymore.

An email is a record of his sending his concerns and requesting help from the DOW. It is as good as certified mail. DOW should have responded and tried to offer a solution.
I also lost a lot of grazing and hay to wildlife in recent years. My family and friends hunt and we harvest our meat legally.
What these ranchers are accused of doing is wrong. Even if their actions were legal, they were still wrong and very unethical by wasteing the meat when so many people would loved to have had a share.
If they are found guilty a great penalty would be to allow free hunts—regulated by drawing–on the ranch for a number of years until the DOW feels that the herd is manageable by legal hunting and during regular seaons. After this objective is met, they should not be allowed to charge for hunting on their ranch for a set number of years.
Remember, the are only accused and should be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Sadly, I don't feel that they will be prosecuted adequately. Our DA will probably plea-bargain down to hunting without a license.

Kudos to our fantastic DOW!!!!
Now for the DA, (that can be the abreviation for more than one name).
Why are there no warrants issued for these felonies and atrocious misdemeanors??
Is this yet another case of selective justice by Rostinks office?
Can't wait to see if this is plea bargained down to improper parking while prosecuting a driver on meth that kills an innocent man is dismissed by the DA. Also this would be similar to prosecuting a teenager in Steamboat for defending himself against a racist. By the way, it cost this teen over $40,000.00 to prove his innocence.
If our DA was as good as our police, deputies and DOW we would have a system to be proud of.
Problem is, we don't!

Why was the bias motivated hate crime charge changed or dropped?
Why was the white kid that assaulted Randal Nelson in Steamboat Springs not charged with a bias motivated hate crime. His remarks to Randal were definately derogatory and race related. He was WHITE and Randal was BLACK.
The major difference was that Randal was able to defend himself and put a stop to the confrontation. Randal had to spend in excess of $40,000.00 to prove his innocence. The people of Steamboat Springs stood up and financially assisted Randal with his lawyer charges. Congradulations to the people that helped Randal and shame on the d a for causing this to happen!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a clear case of descrimination by the D A. If the players colors were reversed would the D A pursue it differently?
This is just another case of the DA over-prosecuting some cases and not or under-prosecuting others. Lack of fairness sure has an odor!!!!!!!!!!

One should not make assumptions at risk of hurting anothers feelings or reputation!!! If you have facts the DOW would sure like to know. If you do not please hold your comments. Sure sound like ENVY to me . I am a hunter and I am happy for this hunter. I would like to bag a buck as nice some day.
question: Would you have taken a photo or a shot? Be HONEST with yourself and with us. We are waiting for your reply or maybe a retraction.
