If there is one thing I can't stand are folks that think they can just walk around and scope out places to hunt on other folks land. These two had to walk past numerous no trespassing signs prior to getting where they are. If anyone can identify these men, I would appreciate a PM. The photos are going to the Tuscaloosa Sheriff's office and with the other photos we have, there is no doubt they will be caught. The land is near Samantha, and that is all I got to say about that.

Definitely don't look like they are deer hunting. Agree maybe cruising timber.

Looks like they're working to me. Do you own the land or have you talked to the landowner about it?

Not timber guys, Land is owned, and not currently ready for any harvest. One rat has a pair of chain cutters in back pocket and a gun on his hip. If they are "Lost" then they need to get a better app on his phone. I ain't buying the timber company line.... "Land is owned". Does that mean you own it or someone else owns it.

The one in overalls is carrying limb loppers in his left hand. My guess is looking for a cemetary, geocaching or something like that. Still no reason to be walking around on posted land.

Are y'all meaning looking for a cemetery as in if y'all see them they will be buried in it? That's how I take it. Lol
There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??

Looking for cemetery, property corner, property line, maybe even one of those cement elevation thingy's. Who knows. The poster feels they will find who it is so they can find out. Won't be able to do anything about it though except tell them not to come back since they obviously not hunting.

I think I'd try to find them and ask questions before going all legal on them. How did the landowner react?

Criminal trespass second-degree involves a person who knowingly enters or remains unlawfully in a building or upon some real property which is fenced or enclosed in such a manner that it is designated to exclude intruders. Criminal trespass second degree can occur when a person trespasses onto private property which is posted with no trespassing signs. From a trespass second-degree is a Class C misdemeanor punishable by a fine and a jail sentence not to exceed 90 days. Nearly impossible to prove unless you have them on video going past a posted sign. Figure out who it is and why they were there, then worry about the legal stuff.

he is taking the photos tot he sheriff and asking them to find and prosecute tot he fullest extent allowed. 10-4. The reaction probly tells the story then. They not supposed to be there. If no to little reaction then the landowner was holding something back from you. They may be scouting for turkey season

I think I'd try to find them and ask questions before going all legal on them. How did the landowner react? I agree with this. I completely understand 100% about not wanting unwanted guests on your property but ready to hit it with full steam and ready to prosecute is a little extreme. They are obviously not hunting (no weapons). Obviously want a hunter to see them (lots of orange). They obviously don't mean any harm here. Ask alot of questions before you make any enemies. Keep in mind you may have the buck of a lifetime that you shot get on the man's property that you and your landowner had prosecuted.

he is taking the photos tot he sheriff and asking them to find and prosecute tot he fullest extent allowed. I hope there is more to the story then what we know, if not the reaction seems a bit over the top. You don't even know why they're there and you're ready to prosecute to the fullest?? They are on there phone in the pics like they're looking for something. They may have been lost or maybe they are up to no good. I understand either way that they are trespassing but to have such an attitude towards others when they don't seem to have actually caused any trouble is strange to me.

I'm sorry guys, but if the landowner says the have no right to be on the property and they walked by several posted signs to get where they are going, then they are trespassing. It doesn't matter if they aren't hunting, shooting, or just piddling. They didn't have permission from the landowner and that's enough for me. I'd call the sheriffs office also and file a report ..

Where is the land located in Tuscaloosa. I'll be glad to come by and do some investigating.

You can not deny anybody access to a cemetary............
And one or two burial plots make a cemetary, regardless if the graves are marked or not. and you don't have to give em 24/7/365 free access either. and they still have to get permission from the surrounding landowner.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I find it interesting that two older gentlemen who don't necessarily look like poachers seem to get lots of possible explanations for their unauthorized presence on someone else's land but a Baldwin County Bubba with a beer can in his hand and girlfriend in tow, who also do not necessarily look like poachers get branded as trespassing scum.
Just sayin'.

Just sayin'. One reason is, the two guys in question here appear to be working and professional. The others are drinking beer and piddlin. J/S

Wonder why they have pliers in their pocket and bolt cutters under their arm? I'm guessing they are looking to remove a treestand.

I find it interesting that two older gentlemen who don't necessarily look like poachers seem to get lots of possible explanations for their unauthorized presence on someone else's land but a Baldwin County Bubba with a beer can in his hand and girlfriend in tow, who also do not necessarily look like poachers get branded as trespassing scum.
Just sayin'. One reason is, the two guys in question here appear to be working and professional. The others are drinking beer and piddlin. J/S Imo, professionalism would require them to gain permission from the owner before entering.

My first thought is does the landowner have any utility easements on the property. Maybe a gas line, power line, or cell tower. A lot of time these landowners forget they have given access through a gate on the back 40 to access these things. I know I am on numerous game cameras doing work for utility companies, and if I know I am on a heavily hunted property during deer season then I will wear orange.

I'd show you what a poacher looks like but they steal my cameras or take my SD card and smash it with a rock....
Never got a picture of one with an orange vest on and no weapon.
Pretty sure they got bolt cutters on them though.

I am taking the op's word for it since it's his thread and he claims to have been there with the owner who not only did not know who they were but also requested the sheriff prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law if caught.

Is there a building on the property? The tax assessor must have the right to go check out buildings on a property; they have sent me bills that included taxes on buildings and I never knew they had been on the place.
They don't like any sort of LEO. Who else would have the right to be on your property without any sort of permission?
My uncle got a big settlement from an oil company that ran tests on his land without permission. Timber buyers have been known to look over a place without asking and then try to buy the timber. These guys don't look like hunters, but unless they are working for govt in some capacity they very well could be up to no good.

He got lucky. Minerals is the dominate estate in Alabama. They have to pay for crop and timber damage but typically nothing more. Testing is a grey area. Most companies offer a token to appease the landowner and receive indemnification.

I'm betting timber cruising not hunters They don't look like timber men. Like someone else said, County workers. They have that look.

I think it is just two old codgers out piddlin. They might have had hunting permission on the land at some point in time, but forgot they lost it. Timber cruisers don't carry around fence pliers and bolt cutters. Like someone else said, utility workers that need access to land carry bolt cutters and will use them in a heartbeat. That is the purpose of having double locks on your gates. One is yours, the other is the power companies. Remove theirs and they will remove yours for you.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

I don't know how ya'll can tell that is bolt cutters. With the leather gloves, wire cutters, ask any cattleman and he would say that is a crimping tool for fence repair. I use a pair with handles just like that. My thought the whole time has been guys looking for escaped cattle and fixing fences. Not sure about the Law now.....But, it used to be legal for them to pursue and retrieve cattle from almost anywhere.

He got lucky. Minerals is the dominate estate in Alabama. They have to pay for crop and timber damage but typically nothing more. Testing is a grey area. Most companies offer a token to appease the landowner and receive indemnification. Can you educate me on what "dominate estate" means? My uncle owns the mineral rights to the property. He knew an oil company was testing in the area, but they never contacted him. They did contact some of his neighbors and paid them for something - I'm not sure if they actually leased their land or just paid to test it. So they had permission to be on his neighbors land. From there, they accessed the back side of his property. He took pictures of their trucks and equipment set up on his land with a string of flagging across it for some reason. At any rate, they found out what was on his land without asking. Didn't really do any damage. When he confronted the company, they claimed to be confused about the property line and offered a token settlement. He took it to court before a jury in Baldwin co and won a significant settlement. He never told me the amount, but I'm pretty sure it was 6 figures. He never bought their claim about not knowing the property line. He thought they just wanted to test his land and not pay him. I guess the jury agreed. So was this unusual? I was kinda surprised he ever got anything. It dragged on for years.

In that case it isn't totally unusual. I was speaking in the context that the mineral ownership was severed from the surface, which is the case most of the time. Him being the owner of both put him in a very good position for compensation.
Most mineral owners however welcome the testing. It is really the only way they can ever get to market. Typically, it is the surface owner that doesn't have mineral ownership is hesitant about the testing.
Thanks! I understand about the mineral rights belonging to someone else. I have mineral rights on most of the land at the farm, but on one tract I bought the seller retained half. It wasn't a deal breaker because it's likely worthless anyway. I do not own mineral rights on the land where I live. Almost nobody in my area does. Some company bought the mineral rights for the whole area decades ago. I certainly wouldn't willingly assist them if they wanted to look for something. I'd hate to have an oil well in my yard, but there wouldn't be a thing I could do about it. My uncle was in a much different situation. The thing is, he wanted to let the company test his land and I'm sure he would have let them do it for a token payment. Poor business on their part to try to strong arm instead.

I HUNT a olderman,s land that has a 3 powerline right aways.The powercompany has rights to cut the right aways without any permission given.I have hunted a couple of clubs with traintracks that workers work on several different factors could be and ppwer companys will cut locks and replace it with a 2 way lock pin were you have a lock and they have a lock ,many factors to consider. Its not illegal to carry a pistol. IF they were ppoacher you would be missing stands and camera,s. if they are off the right of way , they have to have permission to be there . they cant be just roaming around or just cutting through your land to cut right of ways . been there there done this with alabama power for tearing up fences and letting cows out . we used to let them come across out land to cut about two mile of right of way in between to biggggg gulleys . when they came through the last time they just ran over a new 5 strand barb wire fence and just left it . daddy hunted them down told them next time they cut they'd have to bring bulldozers in because they were not coming back across him again . and that's what they did . lol

call and raise hell, they will fix it.
they crushed a metal pipe on my place driving those huge trucks over it, I called and had it replaced within a few days.
subcontractors trimming limbs left a hell of a mess on my place two years ago, I had em out there the next day cleaning it all up.
Call the highest up person with AP you can find and let it roll downhill.

We had a railroad run though our lease in Monroe Co. The train would slow or stop sometimes on our property. One day a member who was hunting close to the railroad stepped out just in time to see a guy on the train step off the stopped train and shoot into the woods. He saw him and got back on the train as it was pulling away. The member went over to where he shot and found a dead hen turkey. A couple of us want to call a LEO but our president said no so we dropped it. I should have gone ahead and had the guy busted.

We havent had that but they will and have cut a lock, chain, or even torch a gate off to get back where they think they need to go. Have a friend who works for the RR and basically they unofficially tell them to do whatever they need to do to get there and not worry about the consequences. Ala power is subbing out a lot of stuff to contractors. They seem to be the ones who dont care. The big transmission line folks have always been very helpful. We had a problem with people dumping on a ROW of theirs. The rep came out and looked and they installed a gate and a fence the width of the ROW. The group over the small lines for distribution thru neighborhoods and such are absolutely zero help and not worth talking too.

We have a Alabama Power line that runs through our place. Up until about 15 years ago we allowed them to use our gates to access their ROW, but one time they came in right after a big rain and ruined about a 1.25 miles of roads. We dont allow any vehicle traffic (ATV-UTV only) on roads when they are wet to keep them in good situation. (if you are familiar with the ground in Sumter county you know what I mean).
We installed gates where the ROW meets the county road and got power company locks for them. We then told power company they had access to their ROW from the road when it starts all they way through, but under no circumstance were they to leave the ROW and travel any distance on our property with our written approval. The problem is there are 4 big gullies on their ROW. When we allowed them to use out roads they would cut a section up to where a gully was then use our roads to get to the next spot and so on. So they had to build 2 bridges across the gullys so they could have access.
They have a legal right to be on the ROW, but that right ends where the ROW ends. After several years (and I calmed down) I started cutting the ROW 3-4 times a year so they dont even come in it anymore.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

That would not be correct. They, by law, have the right to come on your property and cut what they deem are "danger" trees. I have seen this carried to court and the landowner lose badly. Its why they spend so much money on lobbiest, to cover their butts.

These two had to walk past numerous no trespassing signs prior to getting where they are. If anyone can identify these men, [/URL] [/URL] [/URL] Well, what happened? What turned out to be the facts of this situation??? (I didn't see any reference to a conclusion)(may have missed it).

These two had to walk past numerous no trespassing signs prior to getting where they are. If anyone can identify these men, [/URL] [/URL] [/URL] Well, what happened? What turned out to be the facts of this situation??? (I didn't see any reference to a conclusion)(may have missed it). That's what I was asking also. He had everything figured out but their names.

They have a legal right to be on the ROW, but that right ends where the ROW ends.
That would not be correct. They, by law, have the right to come on your property and cut what they deem are "danger" trees. I have seen this carried to court and the landowner lose badly. Its why they spend so much money on lobbiest, to cover their butts. Actually my attorney included in the letter we sent them that they were free to cut any trees or limbs that were on (or over hung) their ROW. However they are not able to cut anything that is not on the ROW. The ROW gives them access to certain areas not the entire property. If a larger (wider) ROW is needed then they will need to got through the legal proper channels to get one.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.
