Nothing in the article says they released it

That sounds like they’re confirming that he didn’t if anything [Reply]
I hate VonDouchebag and all things Broncos. Bit I just don't see a problem here. He didn't mean to catch it. He took some pictures, and let it go. PETA is stupid, and this is just one more stupid move it them. [Reply]

The first line under the article title says that he released it. [Reply]
“Land,” when used in connection with the harvest of marine organisms, means the physical act of bringing the harvested organism ashore”
“Harvest” means the catching or taking of a marine organism by any means whatsoever, followed by a reduction of such organism to possession. Marine organisms that are caught but immediately returned to the water free, alive, and unharmed are not harvested”
Florida code section 68B-44
Might be the fact that they took a picture instead of releasing it immediately. [Reply]

Hammerheads are classified as "Group 3" sharks, according to the commission's website, and the harvesting of them in state waters is a second-degree misdemeanor. In Florida, second-degree misdemeanors are punishable by up to a $500 fine and 60 days in jail, as determined by a judge. [Reply]

I’m just trying to get the facts straight. I couldn’t care less about the shark. [Reply]

I live in Florida and regardless of what you believe, they take those kind of crimes very serious. I know people that did jail time over lobster.
Like I said, if they didn’t kill it he’s fine. I was just trying to figure out whether they did or not because I’ve seen conflicting shit. Why are you so butthurt about that? [Reply]
