On this episode, Clay Newcomb (www.themeateat...) interviews Donnie Baker of Dixon, Missouri who was convicted of illegally killing a 204 4/8-inch white-tailed buck on the Fort Leonard Wood Military base in 2009. Donnie opens up about the details of the kill, how he falsified its location, and the unbelievable attention the buck received within the community. He then tells how he was arrested and interrogated by the Missouri Department of Conservation. This episode is a roller coaster that will make you think about how you cast judgment or mercy on people. Clay later interviews Dr. Misty Newcomb to discuss how, as a society, we choose whom to forgive and whom we not to forgive. Also don't forget, "Meateater's American History: The Long Hunters (1761-1775)" (store.themeate...) is now available for purchase!
