Alaskan Trooper Gate - an analysis:
Wooten admitted to one of the charges; two years previously, he had shot a moose without a state moose-hunting permit:

In 2003, Wooten, his wife and a friend were moose hunting. Upon spotting a moose, Wooten instructed his wife to shoot the moose since she had the permit, she refused so Wooten did.

After carting the moose back to town, Sarah's father actually butchered it in his garage, and Wooten shared the meat with both Sarah and Todd Palin as well as her parents.

Two years later, "during the divorce battle, the family filed a complaint alleging that Wooten had taken that moose illegally. At least they waited until they finished the meat to file the complaint against Wooten."

The Palins are so upset about moose poaching that they waited two years later to report it. The crucial fact is they reported during the divorce proceedings.

Most of the complaints turned out to be unfounded. "According to Trooper records, Sarah Palin said that in January and February of 2005, Wooten was drinking while driving. After investigating the complaint, the investigator found that Palin never actually saw what she reported.

1. How much would the tasering help her?
From what I understand that isn't exactly what she's saying it is either.

This woman is a frootloop. A major frootloop.

3. Reportedly the kid wanted to know what it felt like.
Still a fucking stupid decision on his part, but not one made out of anger or a desire to discipline.

4. Thanks for the details
As I started reading I wondered if she "enjoyed" the takings. Sure enough.

Two years later, huh? When it came in handy. Otherwise, it was a feast that was all in the family.
