A Bend-area man was sentenced after pleading guilty to multiple misdemeanor and felony charges related to illegal guiding and hunting activities that resulted in the unlawful killing of numerous elk and buffalo in Wheeler and Deschutes counties after one of the most extensive investigations in Oregon State Police Fish & Wildlife Division history.  43-year-old Alan Aronson was sentenced to 30 days in jail, received a lifetime hunting license suspension, must make approximately $66,050 in fines and restitution, and forfeited property including a pick-up and two UTV’s that were determined to be used in the illegal guiding operation.  Oregon State Marine Board records revealed that Aronson was not a registered hunting guide in the State of Oregon during the time of the unlawful activities and was operating on land he did not own and therefore was illegally guiding hunters without an outfitter/guide registration.  From this investigation, 23 people have been charged for more than 200 counts filed in Wheeler County and 15 additional charges were filed in Deschutes County.   Ten of those individuals pled guilty or no contest; and cases are pending adjudication for 13 other people.
