Was there any backstop besides for the tree? If a bullet missed the tree, was their property behind it? You mentioned a shotgun. Was it slugs, buckshot or birdshot?
There is more to this story than is being told..............If there really is a story.

Everyone is making light they had the wrong person arrested my wife being a marine she is trained to kill ... and me just being a hillbilly ... even the guys in jail said they had the wrong person arrested
as i have posted in other forums and was banned ,,,,
i was arrested for firing my shotgun in my own yard as i have done for years ... i spent 2 days in jail and have lost a boat load of money ...
as i have lived here for years ,,, a new young couple moved in 8 months ago .. things seemed okay for a while .. but parking in the shared drive was proving to be a problem as they park in the right of way on the driveway all the time ... ... anyway i was arrested ... charged with 2 counts of menacing ... the officers tried to get me for as felony for firing to close to a state highway ... anyway this in short ...
i was found guilty ... " scaring a little girl" the sentence is as follows : no deadly weapons no drinking no illegal drugs anger management classes CRC classes random drug screens
the judge also ordered i cannot park my truck in my own driveway.... because it scares he little girl
the judge and the prosecutor did not want to hear my side .... they heard the little bimbo ... and said if it went to trial i was going to jail
i am guilty of no crime ... violated no law .... did as i have done for years .... yet ... i am guilty of "scaring a little girl"
i got 2 years probation ... drug screens ... lost time at work because ... thy do not work when it is good for me ..
i cannot par k in my own driveway !!!! ... because my truck scares her little girl !!!!!
It sounds like you took a guilty plea. That was your choice and probably a bad choice in my opinion. Unless you are leaving out some threats or ill intent, I don't see how the State could have proved a case against you. You probably simply violated a local ordinance against discharging a firearm if you live in a populated area.
I agree on the suggestion that you move. Now that you have been convicted and are on probation, the police are going to believe your neighbors over you any time an issue arises.
The judge and prosecutor Would not listen to my lawyer on anything .. told my lawyer I was going to do 6 months in jail if it went to trial ...so I was guilty before the case was heard as the neighbor was calling and harassing the prosecutor almost daily ... the other neighbors said they had the wrong person arrested ... as I am married to a marine ...
I need to know if this can be appealed as they have made me forfeit one of my gun to be diestroyed
It doesn't matter what the judge thinks. You have a right to a jury trial. The State has to convince every member of the jury of your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt before you can be sentenced. There should also be sentencing guidelines that would set out the appropriate sentencing range in the event you were convicted.
If you already have a record, just move away and get on with your life. Your chance at winning an appeal are miniscule since you took a plea deal.
OK, you pled guilty. You got scared of a jail sentence and pled guilty. Your lawyer knowing the full story may have known you were guilty. You can't shoot toward your close neighbors where missing a tree puts hot lead across occupied private property. Especially target practicing. There's something missing in this story. I have my own private shooting ranges on two different pieces of property. One has a natural backstop, the other has several hundred yards of dirt piled up. I had a neighbor shooting across my property and I took him to civil court about .30-06 bullets whizzing by us as we tried to work or hunt. The sheriff came out to pick him up and had to kill him.

I still don't get it. Are you saying you suffer from spousal abuse?

Good outcome, right there. Neighbor was a total problem if the sheriff needed to put him down for good. 😎

I call bullshit on this entire story. You're either a semi-talented troll, or an idiot.
While it's true that all liberals are crazy people, not all crazy people are liberals.

No one gets sympathy here. The regulars are a bunch of old and older men who hate pretty much everyone and everything they don't know, except for bitching and moaning.
You're story is fraught with more holes and unknowns than is typical, so of course it is considered to be a scam. Not that there is anything any of us could do about it by now anyway, even if it was straight up and true through and through. But it's not.
And that's the most time I'll spend trying to give you some understanding of what you are up against. Best wishes.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Is she a reservist? Or active duty on recruiting duty? Full time Reservist on title 10 or 32 status???
She must get a pretty good BAQ if active duty recruiting or reservist title 10 or 32 in Ohio How much is that now for her pay grade? How much is her pro pay if so?
Is she gonna kiss the ring and become a career recruiter and stay their? Or are you guys going back to a base in conus? Does she get a station of choice after recruiter duty if that is what she is?
What is her regular job back in the corps or reserves? What rank is she now? Will you be able to transfer your probation to another state if you have to follow her? How long has she been in? How much is BAS now? Does she get vehicle sales tax exemption in ohio if active duty? What do you do for work? Do you have any pets?

Renegade: Are you a lawyer, prosecutor, or investigator? You certainly know how to "cut to the chase". By the time he gets through with that interrogatory we will have a pretty good understanding of the situation. But I'm betting he disappears. If he does answer send him another one about the particulars of his crime. We can't counsel him if we don't have the facts.
