Kalkaska Men Arraigned, Accused of Torturing Animals and Illegal Hunting

Nicholas Patnode, 19, and , 20, were arraigned Monday in Kalkaska County District Court in Kalkaska for multiple wildlife violations that took place throughout Kalkaska County during October-November 2022.

Michigan Department of Natural Resources conservation officers began the complex investigation in 2022 after receiving a tip through the DNR Report All Poaching hotline.

Conservation officers discovered a group of individuals who had committed multiple wildlife crimes, including several counts of shooting deer from a motor vehicle, game-tagging violations and animal cruelty charges.

The Kalkaska men are believed to have illegally killed at least six deer, including a 9-point buck shot from the window of a truck. They are also accused of inhumanely killing a porcupine.

“When there’s this many violations, including torturing animals, education only goes so far. These crimes need to be addressed,” said Jason Haines, chief of the DNR’s Law Enforcement Division. “Prosecution of these acts will hopefully deter not only these individuals but others from committing similar crimes in the future.”

Haines praised the work of his investigators.

“Our officers conducted a very thorough investigation to piece together many pieces of evidence from throughout the county,” he said.

Patnode’s 11 charges, include:

  • Two counts of killing, torturing animals, a third-degree felony punishable by up to four years in jail and/or $5,000 in fines.
  • Six counts of wildlife conservation violation – general violations. Each is a misdemeanor punishable of up to 90 days in jail per count and/or $500 each.
  • One count of hunting and fishing license violation – using another’s license, a misdemeanor that carries a punishment of up to 90 days in jail and/or up to $250 in fines.
  • One count of wildlife conservation violation – taking game from a vehicle; a misdemeanor punishable by up to 90 days in jail and/or up to $500 in fines.
  • One count of wildlife conservation violation – possessing a bow or crossbow in a vehicle operated on public land or roads. The offense is a misdemeanor carrying a sentence of up to 90 days in jail and/or up to $500 in fines.

Garrett’s charges include:

  • One count of killing, torturing animals.
  • One count of wildlife conservation violation – taking game from a vehicle.
  • One count of wildlife conservation violation – possessing bow or crossbow in a vehicle operated on public land or roads.

Garrett and Patnode were arrested April 12 on felony charges; their bond was paid, and they were released the next day. They are due back in court on May 20. Read more

Buck Knives Offers Take-a-Hike Tips

Buck Knives, Inc., a widely-recognized global leader in the outdoors, hunting, and everyday carry (EDC) knife markets, knows that warmer days across America means more outdoors enthusiasts are getting outside. At the top of the list for many adventurers is taking a hike.

Buck Knives offers these tips for everyone heading out on a hike:

*Research routes and trails you wish to travel on, then plan accordingly. Many trails are now rated in difficulty and some trails and routes also require permits before you can hike there. Online research and contacting the local, state or federal agency that oversees the lands where the trail is located could help you determine the necessary details. Make plans now.

*Select the right footwear and socks. While some hiking trails are paved and can be mostly completed in casual footwear, many hiking trails in America require the hiker to select and wear sturdy hiking boots with lugged or aggressive soles. If you have hiking boots that have not been worn recently, try those on and ensure a proper fit before beginning a hike. Select the right socks also, and avoid mostly cotton socks. Nothing ruins a hike faster than a blister.

*Pack along water, snacks, rain gear, emergency items–and a knife. Compact folding knives, like Buck’s iconic 110 Folding Hunter, have been the top choice for many hikers since 1963. The 110 Folding Hunter can be carried in a sheath on the belt or easily placed in a pants pocket or daypack side pocket. Other knives to consider packing–these also fold and take up less space–are Buck’s popular 112 Ranger, 055 The 55 Knife, and the 110 Slim Pro TRX knife. The 112 Ranger comes with a sheath and the 110 Slim Pro TRX has a cerakoted pocket clip to aid with easy access. Additional details such as knife blade length and steel used can be found at www.buckknives.com. Read more
