A couple things I noted from the full report (which was read late last night and I can't remember 100%):
Yes. Trooper Wooten shot a moose without a valid permit, but the person with him did have one. Wooten then went to a Palin relative (father or in-law?) to have the moose butchered. It is suggested that the relative knew the moose had been shot without permit, but proceeded anyway. The Palin's wanted charges to be pressed on Wooten, but were upset when talks began that their relative could be caught up in prosecution.
I believe Todd Palin was also trying to get him investigated for a false injury compensation claim, because Todd surveilled him and took pictures of Wooten snowmobiling. I'm pretty sure the report states that Wooten was given permission to do so by a doctor.
I think someone in the Palin's or the Governors office was filing complaints that Wooten was either dropping off his kid at school, or waiting to pick them up while on duty too. This was investigated and he had obtained permission to do so, because of his schedule.
Crazy part of the report which I think is toooo funny/ironic:
Walt Monegan went to the Governors office to have her sign an Alaska State Trooper card for an event that they were supposed to attend. Palin later cancelled her appearance because (if you can believe it) the photo on the State Trooper card was none other than Trooper Wooten. The guy she wanted fired. Haha. Monegan had never even seen Wooten, so he had no clue. What are the odds?
Anyway, figured I would share.....
P.S. I'd say, for Gov. Palin's sake, they should stop talking about it publically... saying he is a dangerous Trooper. Until he is charged with something criminal, that shit is defamation of character. Now, I'm not saying he's Trooper of the Year... but he seems to have been cleared of whatever dumb shit he's done so far.
- BUT!!! From someone who has seen behind the Law Enforcement curtain first hand... there aren't many that don't have dirty hands. Why do you think most of them wear gloves?
