Stewart County Men Face Federal Poaching Charges

By Chris Taylor

Fort Campbell, KY – Three Stewart County, Tennessee men face federal poaching charges for allegedly hunting big game deer on Fort Campbell property. 45-year-old Curtis Wallace, 43-year-olds Jim Page and Wendell Taylor, and one other man not yet named were apprehended last month in a remote area of Fort Campbell. Investigators later discovered dozens of buck trophy heads in the men's possession. Fort Campbell officials tell the Clarksville Leaf Chronicle federal charges against the alleged poachers could result in stiff penalties. The state Wildlife Resources Agency will hold a press conference tomorrow to detail the charges.
