Never, ever involve the wife...
Something I read once...
The lack of security of a secret is equal to the SQUARE of the number of people who know it.
The only secure secrets are the ones which never leave the inside of your skull.
Now there's a new definition of the term "Chickenhsit" for you.
Oh, and it was a 9th Circuit judge who overturned it on appeal? Someone was looking out for this guy, IMO.

They’re Army chix who escort patrols around Afghanistan, doing Super Sociological stuff (insert blizzard of highly academic, technical powerpoint slides here).
In fact the ploy is simple:
Get foolish or pissed off Afghani chix (thats most of them) to rat out their dudes to uniformed honky chix.
They sometimes know where the weapons are hidden and they will spill the beans.
Looks like some of us still won’t listen to Weingarten, and some of the comments in this thread are pretty funny. :-D
The best protection against tyranny is ananimity.
Sometimes you get the bear, other times a woman totally ruins your life.
What I have learned.
Never ever confess.
How can there ever be a question about self-defense when a grizzly is coming after you?
> It is a little known aspect of the law that a jury trial is not a right in federal court, if the potential sentence is less than six months in jail. That decision was rendered in 1970. In contrast, a jury trial is a right in civil cases involving claims of $20 or more. <
It’s a side point, but that’s a real problem. And it needs to be fixed. The government can take away 6 months of your life without a jury hearing your case.
And that’s how they got Sheriff Joe. The feds charged him with a crime punishable by less than six months in jail. So he had no right to a jury trial.
What happened to him could happen to any of us. Trump’s Supreme Court needs to fix this. If you face ANY jail time, you should have a right to a jury trial.
The “shut up” part is the hardest. People really have no idea how many perps are nailed for a variety of felonies because they just can’t do it. It’ human nature.
OTOH, if you bury it somewhere where even you couldn’t find it later, yer pretty safe.
His failure was the 3rd S. Shutting up is the hardest part.
We’ve got clay here so it would require a backhoe or 15 hours of digging.
A better way is a big ole pile of sawdust from the sawmill. The carcasses disappear quite quickly too, leaving nothing but bones. Works on all mammals.
I think the whole point of SSS is to do it in secret.
Nah. It’s still easy.
Shoot, shovel, shut up on the bear.
When the wife divorces, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When the relatives of the wife come to investigate, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When the local sheriff comes to check out the missing relatives, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When State SWAT teams show up because of the missing sheriff, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When the State National Guard is mobilized to your property, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When the entire combined force of the United States Military is mobilized against you, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When the UN leads a multinational invasion force against you, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
When local aliens with high tech faster-than-light vehicles hears about the threat you pose to this quadrant of the galaxy arrives, with their death rays, shoot, shovel, and shut up.
See?
“His ex-wife’s new boyfriend reported the bear shooting to authorities.”
Yeah, the “shut up” part of the equation means you don’t tell the wife!
