[QUOTE="bmoore87, post: 1339689, member: 21684"] while I agree he should have looked longer and checked his fence I dont agree that you need to stay out their all night chasing them until you get them in or you are negligent. Often times if they arent near to your pasture you will end up spooking them in the dark if you can even find them and you are better off leaving them alone until light and they will usually bed down for the night. We have several feedlots around us they have a couple cattle that will get pushed through the fenceline bunks each month(pens made out of guardrail and continuos fence) some of them get left out in the tall corn until harvest time because you cant find them. If someone hits them should they be charged for knowing they have cattle out and not doing enough about it and who is going to decide that, it will probably not be someone with a knowledge of agriculture and what things are reasonable or negligent in agriculture. The guy who is charged with this obviously made a mistake by not looking longer but a 15 year felony I dont think so. This worries me more about the standard it sets in general. Agree with Jo anytime you get a call about cows out and they end up not being yours follow up with the sheriffs department to make sure their was no miscommunication somewhere along the way and it being a mark on your record.
