MI state troopers lose jobs for poaching deer on duty

Cheboygan, Mich. (AP) – Two state troopers from the Cheboygan
post have lost their jobs for poaching deer while on duty.

Earlier, Jeff Hadley was sentenced to four days in jail for
shooting a buck with his hunting rifle Nov. 12 while on patrol in
Cheboygan County’s Benton Township. Don Bolen received a two-day
jail sentence.

Both apologized during their sentencings.

The Cheboygan Daily Tribune now reports the troopers the two
have lost their jobs while awaiting arbitration.

Detective Sgt. Christopher Luty is vice president of the
Michigan State Police Troopers Association and says the discipline
isn’t official until after the troopers’ arbitration hearings.
