Elizabeth resident Jacob Haas, 22, has pled guilty to charges filed by a Colorado Division of Wildlife (DOW) officer stemming from the illegal take of an elk on private property on a ranch near Franktown in southern Douglas County. Haas must pay the $10,000 ‘Samson’ surcharge for killing a trophy quality bull elk, is on probation for two years, and faces license suspension for illegally killing the bull elk and hunting on private property without permission. The guilty plea is the culmination of three years of work on the case by District Wildlife Manager (DWM) Travis Harris. Harris also credited the assistance of the Douglas County Sheriff’s office and Douglas County Open Space rangers with helping secure evidence in the case.
