OXFORD, MS — Andrew Curtis Emerick entered a guilty plea to a two-count federal indictment charging him with illegally killing a turkey on U. S.
Army Corps of Engineer land in Marshall County in 2014, and he was also accused of shooting three turkeys in Nebraska and transporting them back to Mississippi. A federal indictment says he did not have the proper hunting licenses or permits to hunt the birds.

Emerick was ordered to serve two years probation and pay a $3,200 fine. He also is banned from hunting for two years and surrendered a shotgun used in the hunts to federal authorities.
