Kayla Lyons sighted for Fishing License Violation

[Gellar]

It doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but then we look into the case a weee bit further. Kayla Jean Lyons is the Director of the Iowa DNR. I bet that Conservation Officer won't get a favorable review this year.

Appears it may have been an honest mistake. Bad optics, but probably not the most nefarious director behavior discussed on this forum.

IMO the director of the DNR is held to a higher standard. I am sure that her excuse is valid and could happen to anyone. I’m glad she self reported, if she truly did.

Joe Pickett out of his jurisdiction again.

One of the reasons I carry tangible licenses even when digital options are available. But, I still don’t see this as a torch-and-pitchfork situation with the info provided.

I'm just glad the Director of DNR is out enjoying the resource she manages.

Some other high profile folks would be gutted around here. But, good for her. mtmuley

Meh

 

[Treeshark]

Exactly. Hard to get real worked up over this one.

Sounds like she had the option of a warning but chose to make an example of herself. It should buy her some political brownie points. That's okay I guess. I have been in this same boat. Identity theft a couple of years ago and had to have all my cards and accounts changed. One automatic bill payment was overlooked.

 

[F250]

She did the right thing.

 

[VAspeedgoat]

That almost happened to me this fall in Va.

I'm with you pal. Let's burn this thing to the ground.
