Tucson animal activist sentenced to 8 months in prison

Arizona Daily Star
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 08.07.2006
Animal activist Rodney Coronado was sentenced to eight months in prison and three years supervised probation this morning for his role in the disruption of a 2004 mountain lion hunt in Sabino Canyon.
Coronado, a Tucsonan, was convicted in December of conspiracy to impede or injure an officer of the United States, a felony, and misdemeanor counts of interfering with a forest officer and depredation of government property. He was also ordered to pay $100 restitution.
Matthew Crozier of Sedona was convicted of the same charges and sentenced to three years probation and 100 hours of community service and fined $1,000.
The pair were also ordered not to associate with members of the Animal Liberation Front, Earth Liberation Front, Earth First or similar group that encourages violence.
They were accused of spreading false scents and pulling up a sensor and trap during a hunt for problem lions in the then-closed canyon.
