Stupid people
 

A Baton Rouge man and woman pled guilty for violations stemming from the illegal sale of recreationally caught fish and were sentenced on Feb. 24, by Judge Marilyn Lambert from the 23rd Judicial District Court.

Lambert sentenced both John A. Moccabee, 60, and Lolita M. Ralston, 52, to six months probation, a 90 day suspended jail sentence, $1,750 in fines plus court costs, $1,179.93 in restitution as a condition of probation and barred them from fishing in Louisiana for one year.

Agents cited the two in Gonzales on July 12, 2009 for selling fish, crabs and shrimp that were caught using recreational licenses while in Grand Isle. They were found to be in possession of 629 fish, 12 pounds of shrimp and 29 pounds of blue crab.

Ralston pled guilty to selling fish without a wholesale/retail seafood dealer's license, selling fish caught recreationally, possessing undersized spotted sea trout and obtaining license by fraud. John A. Moccabee pled guilty to selling fish without a wholesale/retail seafood dealer's license and selling fish caught recreationally.

Judge Lambert's husband is Senator Lambert.

These folks got what they deserved, but we need to be damn glad we have at least one judge that will make them pay.

they drew the short straw when the got Marilyn

629 Feesh :eek:
I think that deserves more than 1700 in fines and a suspended jail sentence.

If only
 

Guys ,
The wardens could make bust like this most every day if they would patroll La1 harder.
I have called OGT a few times on folks keeping undersize reds and keeping WAY over the limit.
Never had a GW show up to check out the folks.
Get tired of calling when ya get NO response.

guys, if we want to make a difference we have to keep up with the sentencing of these fools.

It's amazing how many judges see this as no bid deal.
look into Hunters against poachers.

I am with you Eman.......I thinks they chase us guys in the boats because we can pay the fines........maybe.........really don't know..........??

I defiantly agree with you there, they can make 1 lap of big lake and have tons of exposure. I also know the game wardens are spread very thin and try to make the most of their resources.
