I figured someone would have linked to this already but I'll be him I guess. This kind of crap makes me ill. The troopers posted a pic of *******'s cub last night on the news. Looking for it to seize. Its registered in Washington I guess. Maybe they left the state... Wonder how much of this is true. Hopefully none.......

banditos indeed

I sure wish they caught ALL dirtbags like this. Unfortunately, I don't think that's quite the case. I hope they throw the book at them. I'll bid on the guys cub at the auction. It looks clean.

Not sure what you saw on the news last night, but these guys pleaded guilty to the crimes in your link long ago. They have since been back working in this state.

They had a picture of the plane and wanted anyone who sees it to call the troopers. Maybe AlaskaTrueAdventure posted the statement of the day (in his post above)........

It Only Takes One

to taint the 100s who live & work by the book. It's unfortunate but true. It's also true that greed is found in the human race - all parts of it -politicians, bankers, guides, & hunters.

I don't think so. The article is dated today, 12 Feb, and states the indictment was handed down yesterday so it cannot be the same charges. I hope the troopers find the cub and the guides get trial, they can prove or disprove the allegations from there. If guilty they should loose their guide licenses for life.

So what does all this have to say about the hunter who paid 12,000 for a moose hunt and didnt get what he wanted... so picked another... i wonder how often this really happens. i am sure it is more often then we like once you start puttng those kind of price tags on things.

The wanted plane

Here is where the airplane is listed as wanted. Not sure about the rest of the story. Doing some research--if I find anything I will post.

You are correct, sorry that I missed that. The troopers are looking for that cub and it is registered as being owned by the person in the referenced article, although the address is now in Washington and not Wasilla.

You guys, come on. Go to the link that started this thread. In the search bar type Kurt Lepping, this archive will give you the article that talks about the plea agreement. Kurt Lepping was just refused his Transporters License by the Board in 2008. I can't believe that there is anything not clear about this issue.

A picture of the plane in question is in today's ADN (A-5). The plane is registered to Kurt Lepping. It is registered in Carlsborg, Washington.

Transporter info
