PINEDALE, Wyo. (AP) -- Two Utah men have been convicted of various charges stemming from the illegal shooting of a trophy class mule deer buck last year in southwest Wyoming.
The Wyoming Game and Fish Department says Jeremy S. Zumwalt and Gregory L. Carter, both from the Salt Lake City area, were convicted recently in Sublette County Circuit Court.
The poaching incident occurred Nov. 16, 2007, south of Pinedale.
Circuit Court Judge Curt Haws ordered Carter to pay a $5,400 fine and $2,000 in restitution. Zumwalt was ordered to pay $2,000 in fines and $2,000 in restitution.
Both lost their hunting and fishing privileges for 10 years, and both had two-year jail sentences suspended in favor of two years of probation.
