## Caption

Five Mississippi men have been sentenced in federal court for their roles in a long-running poaching and wildlife trafficking operation that targeted trophy-class whitetails in Southern Illinois.⁠
⁠
The restitution and fees for all five men totaled not quite $120,000. Fifty-four-year-old ringleader Lee Jay Johnson of Saucier, Mississippi, was ordered to pay the bulk of that: $75,000 in restitution fees and $10,000 in fines for Lacey Act violations. While all five men were also sentenced to five years of probation, they all also avoided jail time.⁠
