Convicted Felon faces multiple charges...

On December 6, 2008 Conservation Police Officers Clark and Woodruff were checking some hunters in Greensville County when Officer Clark noticed a man with no blaze orange holding a shotgun and walking away. As Officer Clark approached, the subject went behind some bushes where he could not be seen and then returned with no firearm. Officer Clark asked the man how the hunt was going and was told that the man had not seen any deer that day. When asked for his hunting license, the man stated that he had not bought one. Officer Clark then asked him where he had put his gun, and the man led him straight to where he had stashed the gun in the bushes. Officer Clark asked the suspect if the reason he had hid his gun was because he did not have a license, to which he replied "I have a felony." After verifying that he was a convicted felon, the following charges were placed: hunt without a license, hunt without a big game license, hunt without required blaze orange, and felon in possession of a firearm.

I bet they throw him under the jail! Maybe if hes lucky the will just fine his rear big time.
