Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 What a sick commentary on our society. They won't pay to support their kids unless they can murder animals. Great incentive tho, billiant idea! SPRINGFIELD -- A $14,000 child support check was handed to Rachel Miller because the father of her two sons likes to hunt white-tail deer.The state refused to renew Michael DeBrito’s hunting license as part of a new program, which gives so-called “deadbeat dads” the option of making child-support payments immediately or giving up the right to hunt and fish.Matching up hunting licenses against lists of parents behind on their payments is the state’s newest way to chip away at the long-standing problem of child-support collection.In the six months the program has been in effect, the state has collected nearly $130,000 from 90 parents.But DeBrito said he isn’t happy about the turn of events, claiming the way the state works now, they’re in control of way too many things.
