Many years ago, my now deceased father in law was with a county department not to be named here. That department had the duty of patrolling part of the areas around Lake Houston. I have not been there in many years so I don't know if it is the same now but back then it was a very wooded area and had lots of wildlife. My FIL was an avid hunter but was rather, lets just say unscrupulous. He was one of those few that thought that because he had a badge, he could do no wrong. Anyway, he was always spotlighting deer and shooting them from the car (always wore earplugs while on patrol out there). He would carry a rifle with him on duty, shoot the dear, roll it onto a plastic paint tarp he carried in his car, and load it in his trunk to take home. This area was very un-populated at the time but he would get an occasional call of someone hearing shots fired. He would then run the call with the deer in the trunk.
One night he was on his usual patrol/hunt, spotted a deer, put his rifle in place, sighted the deer and shot. Just then he saw glass breaking as he had forgotten to roll down the window. He usually rolled it down when he started patrolling this area but had forgotten to this night.
Now is where this gets funny. Since he was on deep nights, and took his car home, he was able to get the window replaced the next morning and thought he was in the clear. Except, his LT was doing a surprise evaluation on him that night and he did not get as much of the glass cleaned up as he though. The LT sat in the seat, squirmed around a bit he said, stood back up and had about 10-15 shards of glass sticking out of his pants.
I do remember that after taht night, I did not get as much venison from him as I once did so I think it may have put an end, or at least a slow down on his poaching.
