Game wardens walk up on "armed" hunters all the time and do not draw their weapon, much less point the damn thing towards an individual.
If the deputy was unsure he should have written a summons with a cool head, not arrest, and this would have been cleared up with the local DA and charges dropped.

The guy who called the cops and noticed it was an acquaintance of the land owner should have used common sense and dismissed the officer. Now he deserves a beating.

I own property in Mississippi which I inherited from my relatives.
Personally the only thing I do is pay property taxes, pay insurance, check on it every once in blue moon, and collect logging or mineral checks.
My family and I for a few years kind of didn't want to say much about people hunting the land due to family employed a lot of people in this area.
Hated this time of year due to my phone would blow up with local yokel billy bob getting mad because Local yokel Leroy was hunting on his so called spot on my land.
No one had a lease or agreement with me, but due to my relatives employed a lot of people in this area I tried to play nice letting people hunt the land.
Just got out of hand and I got sued over someone falling out of a tree stand.
Now the local law enforcement knows if people don't have a letter which my attorney has put together with my signature, contact info, their signature, contact info, time line to be on land they are trespassing.

Been approached by a lot of people wanting to lease it or sub lease it for hunting, but they want to act like the land is theirs which for the money it is not worth the headache, liability, and don't like people telling me what they want to do on my land.

Sir - Not sure where your property is in MS. But I have two words for you "Tuscaloosa Trend". If you have mineral rights, hold on to it by all means and I would keep everyone off of it to insure no litigation holds up the train that is coming!!!!

What happened with the lawsuit? I always hear "I could get sued" excuse from landowners but never actually heard of it happening. I thought there had to be some kind of proof of negligence for them to get any money.

All depends on if they get a jury trial. Old george shows up on crutch's and wearing a neck brace and says he can't feed his wife and family because he fell out of your tree. They will more often than not give him $$$.
When i ask someone if i can hunt or fish on their property,the first thing i do is offer to sign a hold harmless agreement, second is to offer half of what i might catch / kill.
Had one land corporation that has a prime piece of land close to my house. went and asked if i could hunt? Land agt. told me if i bought hunting club insurance i could , would have been worth it EXCEPT>
I told him i would buy the insurance for 3 years but if i did that it made me liable for any accidents on the property. I told him that for me to cover his land w/ my insurance i needed a letter on Company letterhead signed by him and any other Co officers stating that i and i alone had access, Anyone else found on the property would be trespassing. Talk about someone crawfishing. found out latter that all kind of folks had verbal permission to hunt there.

I reported my truck stolen once in New Orleans. Turns out it had been towed but no one had a record of it getting towed and where it was towed to. I reported it stolen. Then got a call from the tow place the next day. Picked up my truck. Called the police and told them what happened. The said it was all good. Then a month later at cowboys in Scott La I walked out to my truck and as soon as I touched the door. Lights hit me guns and tazers drawn I was ordered on the ground in the rain & thrown in the back of the car. They weren't pleasant and seemed to be a little disappointed after I gave them my name and spelled it 5 times. Nopd never filed the paper work.

2. I would have run the truck to see what kind of person I was dealing with. We rarely get killed by guys who coach little league and pay taxes.

3. I would have looked IN the truck. A camo sweatshirt, some gun cases and a lunch box indicates hunters. Maybe ducks or feathers in the back aint a bad indicator either.

4. I would interview the guys coming out of the woods, get their information and phone numbers for the landowner and send them on their way. I would do this as politely and quickly as possible. If my investigation indicates that trespassing charges are in order I can write a declaration in support of a warrant or I can issue a citation via mail. If they turn out to be rabid terrorists, that is what the SERT team is for. If it turns out the neighbor knew he was mis-reporting same proceedure, different ticket.

In any case I think I would not have needed to draw down on anyone. If I did, I would get the pleasure of filing a use of force report detailing what about the subjects demeanor, mental status, potential for escalation, physical advantage, and seriousness of crime prompted me to draw. No good articulation of need to draw, no more job, no warnings.

I don't know about there, but here I can run virtually any case past a DA to see if I have something BEFORE filing charges. In exigent circumstances where someones safety may be at stake arrests are always made.

You know why we hate murderers? Because they end a potential. You know why we hate wife beaters and bullies? Because they end a sense of safety and security in our persons. You know why we hate rapists and molesters? Because they steal innocence. You know what happens when you arrest or accuse someone who did not do it? You take their security, their potential and their innocence. My job is not to catch criminals, it is to dscover the truth....period. With just a tiny bit of humility and some work I can do both without destroying lives and violating rights.
