OutdoorHub 05.27.12
The third and final defendant in the 2009 deer-snowmobile thrill kill case that sparked interest from citizens and various organizations statewide this week was sentenced in Waupaca County Circuit Court.
Robby Kuenzi, 26, of Weyauwega, was sentenced to six months in jail, two-and-one-half years of probation plus more than $6,000 in costs and a fine. Kuenzi also cannot exercise his hunting and fishing privileges for three years. He was sentenced by Judge John Hoffman.
In April, Kuenzi pled no contest to three felonies and three misdemeanors.
The incident occurred in the Town of Lind in Waupaca County in January 2009, and involved several deer which were repeatedly run over by snowmobiles and in some cases mutilated by use of the machines.
The other two men involved in the incident, Robby’s brother, Rory Kuenzi, and Nicholas Hermes already have been sentenced.
