i am so tired of the same group trespassing. it took me 5 years to get the local cops out of my private piece. the next block over has changed hands, the land owner lawers asked my property lawers to post the property for them. which i did in september. i don't have hunting rights but it makes a good sancuary next to my lease. well today the same group led by the same cop shows up to drive it. the land owners that allow me to hunt called me and told me a drive was setting up. i call the co, busy, he's got a guy that killed a buck in the middle of the road 10 miles away. co said call the local police dept, which this leader of the drive works for. so i called and explained the situation. i live in the next town over and have to tread lightly, i like to drive without getting pulled over. hopefully this will get straightened out. i know the guy has been hunting the property for 20 years, but owners have changed and don't want anyone in there, doesn't matter what you do for a living. if it doesn't stop i guess a letter to the paper might slow it down. i've been carrying a video camera for years now. they know this and have stopped driving on my lease. but they need to stop driving the next block. what you do for a living should give you the right to hunt every property in the town you work in. this cop has been warned by f+g before to clean up his act, and he still clings to "this is my town" small town BS![]() __________________ united bowhunters of nj

My inlaws had a Hackettstown cop actually drive down their 1250 ft lane and TELL, not ask them that he was going to hunt on their farm and that he was a Hackettstown cop so their was nothing they could do about it. My mother in law told him that our town is covered by State police and the state trooper that she was about to call will not care that he is a Hackettstown cop and to get the hell off her property ASAP. He actually had the balls to call her a few choice words on his way off the property.
Cops like that one should think about why they actually wanted to be a cop in the first place... __________________ "from my cold dead hands"

I know a group of cops that got in trouble for tresspassing. They had to go to court and pay a fine. One is a friend of mine that takes all his buddies from different agencies on the quads. They pissed off a neighbor by constantly crossing his property to the point there was a dirt road made from his back yard through this guys property. After several warnings the guy pressed charges. I can imagine it was a bad seen being in law enforcement standing in front of a judge for a think like tresspassing. __________________ "from my cold dead hands"

Good luck. There are A-holes every where, sometimes they happen to be cops.

Now that I know who you are dealing with, you will get nothing done locally, even with most state boys. I would contact F&G and lean on their ear hard. Also go with the newspaper idea. Call up to Trenton if nothing gets resolved with the CO's down here. There have been tons of complaints on these guys over the years.
If they see a buck on a field they think nothing of pulling off and going after it no mater whos property they are on. Sorry to say but you have a tough one there with those guys. |

Hackettstown and washington cops all do the same thing..... i just lost a piece of property cause a washington cop decides to move a property stake to make his stand legal on the club that leased the property next to mine. when that land owner found out he flipped and the story got screwed up along the way. the leased property land owner calls my land owner telling him i moved the property stake. Bam i lost it after 13yrs of hunting it. giveum a badge and wow nothing can touch them..... there are exceptions to that comment, but not many! __________________ Just when ya think ya knew it all, ya find someone who does know it all

| if you have reservations on going to the local police department to make a complaint about one of it's officers, you should contact the county prosecutors office and make your complaint with them. this comes right out of the NJ Attorney General's Guidelines for law enforcement. | ||

I posted about a similar occurence a few years back on another web site.
When I used to live in Monmouth County, a piece I used to hunt was routinely driven by local LEO's. They actually used to put standers within 75ft. of a house, the home owner would be out there screaming and hollaring at the LEO's telling them to move further away from his house. Their reply was simply, "don't worry we'll leave soon". When I posted about this, I actually had one of the LEO's PM me and he threatened to press charges against me for talking about this on a public forum! To make a long story short, their continued illegal actions eventually led to the township banning all hunting on their properties... |

| Just because they carry a badge they think it's their place to hunt. They should be prosecuted just like any other criminal, and they should loose their jobs. | ||

I think a VERY effective way to bring the point home is for you to bring out a BBQ, lawn chair, the whole works out onto his front lawn one Sunday morning. When this cop comes out yelling, you can remind him that you are enjoying his property in the same way that he enjoys trespassing on your property. Seriously set up a party on this guys lawn, block his driveway with your car if needed to make the point stick. He thinks your land is public, then show him his land is equally public.
My uncle is one of these kind of cops, a real grade A jerk who is perpetually above the law. |

Perhaps a hunter supported petition to take their licenses away might send a message. Start with a letter to the editor in the local papers, no need for names-maybe a headline like "Local Police Officers Tresspass; Lawful Hunters Outraged" __________________ NJOA

The above is absolutely correct. We had this problem a few years ago with some local LEO's. After a complaint to the county, the mucipal PD passed a personnel rule that called for disciplinary action if a similar complaint was substantiated-Now there is no problem. One of those guys now hunts with our crew during 6-day and actually declined to hunt one farm with us and waited in the car because we did not have the written permisison to be on the property form with us- (we actually have it, but not with us at the time)see what a little complaining can do ![]() __________________ Support the N.J.O.A. and the "Littel Amendment" An amendment to the New Jersey State Constitution that Guarantees the right to hunt, trap, and fish in New JerseyNew Jersey Outdoor Alliance

It isn't selfish, the neighbors asked him to watch and post the land. I'd do the same thing.
I work in zone 25 and have heard of this group. They have driven properties of guys I work with and those guys don't want them on their land either, but these dudes just don't care and a few of the local Troopers are friends with some of the culprits so they continue to get away with their crap. |
