From ANIMAL PEOPLE, Jan/Feb 1998:

Chris Cochrane and six hunting buddies thought
they’d killed a deer on December 27, near Turner’s Bay,
New Zealand. Then, thinking he’d seen the deer move, one
man fired another shot, reportedly causing “serious injuries” to
Cochrane’s pelvis and buttocks. Airlifted to medical help,
Cochrane achieved an unusual daily double when he was also
charged with poaching, along with all six pals.
Reports reaching ANIMAL PEOPLE indicate that
no U.S. hunter was involved in both the shooting of a human
and in poaching in which charges were filed in the same incident
during the fall/winter 1997 hunting season––but no shortage
of hunters were involved in one or the other.

From ANIMAL PEOPLE, December 1997:

CADIZ, Ohio––Hunting season is
when perversely slain bodies are found, and
not just the bodies of animals.
Danny H. Jenkins, 51, of East
Akron, was charged on October 8 with shotgunning
two of his bowhunting buddies,
brothers Duane and William Lockard, 60 and
61, of Suffield.
Jenkins’ alleged motive, the
Harrison County Sheriff’s Department told
media, was robbery. Both Lockards were
known to carry large sums of cash.
Drifting between Ohio and Florida
for many years, Jenkins was within days of his
arrest also questioned in connection with the
November 19, 1993 buckshot murder/robberies
of Florida deer hunters Don Hill, 63,
and Gregory Allen Wood, 35, in the Osceola
National Forest.
All four victims were shot at close
range from behind.
A search of local newspaper archives
for background on Jenkins discovered that in
November 1994 he claimed to have been
among the hunters who discovered the skeletal
remains of a still unidentified teenaged girl
beside the Berlin Reservoir in Deerfield
Township––but Portage County prosecutor
Victor Vigluicci said Jenkins was not among
the hunters who reported the find.
