| Quote: | Missouri poacher ordered to repeatedly watch 'Bambi' as part of sentence for illegally killing hundreds of deer
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- A Missouri poacher has been ordered to repeatedly watch the movie "Bambi" as part of his sentence for illegally killing hundreds of deer.
The Springfield News-Leader reports that David Berry Jr. was ordered to watch the Disney classic at least once a month during his year-long jail sentence in what conservation agents are calling one of the largest deer poaching cases in state history.
Prosecutors say the deer were killed for their heads, with their bodies left to rot.
Berry was convicted in southwest Missouri's Lawrence County of illegally taking wildlife. Three relatives and another man also were caught in connection to the poaching case. They've paid $51,000 in fines and court costs.
Berry also was sentenced to 120 days in jail in nearby Barton County for a firearms probation violation. |

Or that dentist from Minnesota who killed that supposedly protected lion in Africa. Lion King.

He would've related to the end of Se7en. His dad asked him "What's in the baawx?!1..." once regarding a locked box in his room. It wasn't no Magwai. Yes the box had a head. Close call for Jeffrey. He convinced him that he really didn't wanna know its contents, but so what, we all have our own clutter.

This really annoyed me when I heard about it. If the judge really cared about rehabilitating the poacher and teaching him to be compassionate then making him watch a cartoon is idiotic. Either find a valid way to educate the man or just let him serve his time as punishment without this dumb bonus punishment.
Either the judge is so dumb he thinks this will actually work or he's just hoping for the Kardashian effect of doing something ridiculous just to get his 15 minutes of fame.
I'm pretty sure it's the latter. Which pretty much shows the society we live in now. |

Not a fan of grandstanding judges.

| I didn’t think about the grandstanding judge before but you guys are right. A symptom of a broader problem with our judicial system |

 Wouldn't that be like having a murderer watch SAW repeatedly? Somebody that blissfully killed hundreds of deer is not the type of person that's going to suddenly have a 'come to jesus' moment when he watches something like Bambi. If anything, that's going to be like watching porn for him.
