Buffalo killing charges for Jeff Hawn
I am writing to you concerning the article you printed about Jeff Hawn in the Aug. 8 issue. Just because he is wealthy doesn't make any difference when it comes to breaking the law; he's no better than anyone else.

Mr. Hawn has 32 criminal charges against him. You also printed that John Norman was Hawn's ranch manager, Mr. & Mr. Norman are care takers or janitors for Hawn. The property Mr. Hawn owns isn't used as a ranch; it's just a vacation area. In the first place, a rancher doesn't hate animals and KILL them!

There isn't any one that knows that the buffalo did any damage to anything; they're just guessing. It could have been a herd of elk that stays in that area; or even Hawn's horses rubbing on his solar panels and TV dishes could have been the problem.

The Normans never maintained the fences, even before they sold their property to Hawn, for many years, which has caused a lot of problems over the years. This whole things has caused Monte and myself a great loss.
