After a lengthy trial on January 6, Roger Ellis Reid and Michael Foley were convicted of spotlight hunting for deer and shooting from a state road on November 15. “This is a very serious violation of hunting laws and certainly cannot be tolerated,” declared Judge William Carson.
The lawyer for the defendents, William Helsley, argued that the men were out raccoon hunting and that the spotting lights and rifles found in the men’s possession were appropriate for that activity.
Mr. Foley testified that he and Mr. Reid had been slowly driving down Route 618 when he saw a raccoon cross the road. He stopped the car, turned off the headlights, strapped a light onto his own head, then got out of the car and fired a shot. He said he crippled the raccoon and then embarked on a search for it with another hand-held light and a pistol.
Mr. Helsley also stated that hunting provided the bulk of the defendants’ income during the winter months.
