The jury did their job, now let's see if the judge has the balls to finish it the correct way. Lifetime suspension of hunting priviledges and once he's a felon he can no longer own or posess a firearm of any type. Besides all that has been said and done, he has lost all credibility he may have had, from here on out he will be suspect as a lier and only his closest friends family will still have any respect for him. I actually have simpathy for him and his family for what they must now face, if they face it together providing they don't consider him a throw away.

On Culverwell convicted of 16 charges

Granny perhaps this is one of those cases where your local DA knew the eyes of the county residents would be upon her. Grinolds will now get a fair trial, be convicted, and subjected to the same laws as you and everyone else in MoCo. It just took your DA a little longer to realize she was being watched a little closer than a year ago.

After reading about the problems they had trying to get a straight and good jury of "his peers" I fear the state of Colorado will not get a fair trail.

Boy did you ever screw the pooch 50cal you better hope the person you named as 'decidedly inbred' or his friends don't read this blog one of them is probably going to give lessons on how to use a K-Bar, up front and real personal. He did his time and paid his fines and has turned his life around, better than I can say for the outfitter and rancher who hired them. The young man finished high school and is currently enrolled in a junior college and working a fulltime job. He does know how to spell and use proper diction which is an improvement over most those of you responding here, whether you're from Mafia County or another part of the US. Oh and my opinion: I used to hunt but I quit when it stopped being fun. I think that all non resident hunters, tourists or whatever should detour and stay completely away from Craig/Mafia County thus keeping those who live there fat, dumb, and happy with no one to blame but themselves.

Rape as word or an action is objective. To paraphrase Bill Clinton it all depends an what you mean by the word rape. He (the male) was having sex. She (the young lady) was having an oversexed kid forcing himself upon her. He was having a great time, probably under the influence of alcohol or a slight amount of weed and not in full control of his mental facilities.
She on the other hand was probably scared, slightly under the influence of a smooth talker and a little booze or weed. Maybe at a party where everybody else was doing "it". And, she really didn't want to be left out of the in crowd. But none the less she was forced or coerced into doing someing she didn't want to do. In my opinion that's rape pure and simple.

On According to the 2007-08 Healthy Kids Colorado survey, 27 percent of Moffat County High School senior girls indicated they had been raped. Do you find this statistic credible?

This whole thing reeks of entrapment. But, I have a limited, very focused view of MoCo law enforcement, it's why I moved out of Moffat County. They (local LE) will never stop hitting the weak spots until the weak spots are eliminated. The people who live outside of Moffat County and do business there, do so generally, only because they have to. They're tied to another business or firm that requires they do so. I only go to Craig because I enjoy some time in Steamboat and then only in the winter and it's on the way to Wyoming and I have friends in Craig and the immediate surrounding area. I know that in the opinion of many, Craig is a beautiful area, but it also carries the label of Meth Capital of Colorado and Mafia County due only to law enforcement and the way local government runs things. Maybe things have changed since I left 12 years ago, but judging by the way your DA works, the number of vendors caught in an underage booze sales sting, and the number of people in the jail and the low voter turnout, it appears the only that has changed is the population.

Where did Rodney get the kind of money it takes to retain the high powered attorney he has? If in fact, it's the same one we're thinking of. If these ranchers wanted to they could, with DOW (read this as license buyers) help, build elk proof fences, all they have to do is put up money on their own and DOW will add to it maybe not very much but they will put up some. Just look at the big Elk ranch south of Craig around Pagoda. If you want to keep them out you can keep them out. On the other hand, if you want to bait them you can do that too.
They get no sympathy from me. That's the cost of doing business. Do they have insurance that covers fire if a fire destroys their hay barns? Or if a storm knocks down all their grain before it can be brought in? What about animal damage to fences? Or insuring the animals themselves? I'll probably be flamed bigtime for my opinions and my thoughts, but what Culverwell and Wolgram did is wrong, they say they had good reason, but for them to shoot that many animals under the phony excuse of protecting their hay, cows, and horses is pure crap. The DOW will and should use every possible means to convict these two; and just because everybody in the county has the same caliber weapon, ballistics will prove who shot what. And, if they used shotguns that only proves that the shooter had to be real close and ballistics will again prove out. Before you all start thinking I'm a great supporter of DOW let me set you straight, I'm not. I think that the program is good but it is run from on high by people who have no idea of what is actually happening on the ground ie. the over populations of elk, CWD, whirling disease, etc. But let's put the blame where it belongs Culverwell and Wolgram broke the law and they need to be punished, regardless.

I got a little concerned about the way this case was going so I logged in to the DOW website, you know the one where they answer all your questions and asked why these two clowns weren't being treated as the criminals they are? You know high bail, in jail until bail is met and so on, DOW's response? Nothing yet.
Regardless of your position on this situation. we need to stand together as members of a community, county, or western region of the state to make sure that, not just these two guys get just punishment, but that an example is set for all who even ponder stepping outside the law or consider taking the law into their own hands for their own good. I hope their attorneys charge them enough so that both Culverwell, and Wolgram spend the rest of their miserable lives paying for them if they do get off.

Maybe a petition or a letter should be sent to the State Attorney General requesting a Special Prosecutor for this case or Moffat County with this case in particular. Because as it appears to all of us the local DA is not prepared or willing to actively prosecute this case as needs be. It also appears to me that the problem is not going to go away, Roesink is a DA who appears to have an separate agenda that runs contrary to the general population of MoCo.
