WI Court of Appeals – District II

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Kurt F. Froebel

Case No.: 2018AP1083

Officials: NEUBAUER, C.J.

Focus: Sufficiency of Evidence

Kurt F. Froebel appeals from a judgment convicting him of interfering with lawful hunting, contrary to WIS. STAT. § 29.083(2)(a). Froebel argues his conviction should be overturned for three reasons: the evidence does not show that he impeded or obstructed the hunters, the hunters were not engaged in “lawful” hunting, and the evidence does not show that Froebel’s intent was to prevent the taking of a wild animal. Because the evidence sufficiently shows Froebel impeded or obstructed the hunters whose hunting was not shown to be unlawful and whose plain intent was to prevent the taking of a wild animal, we affirm.
