Ronald Gasser, 56, had been charged with second-degree murder, which car- ries a life sentence. Manslaughter carries a sentence of anywhere from zero to 40 years. State District Judge Ellen Kovach set a March 15 sentencing date. Defense attorney Matthew Goetz said he would appeal. “We’re obviously disap- pointed with the verdict,” he told The New Orleans Advocate as he left the courthouse.

As commercial fisher- men and women begin to purchase their spiny lobster trap tags, this is a reminder that the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has waived the $1 per trap spiny lobster trap tag fee for the 2018-2019 season. This waiver was approved at the December 2017 Commission meeting as an action in response to COURTESY Hurricane Irma. These tails were removed at the dock. It is illegal to “Our hearts go out to the remove the tail while on the water. men and women who were impacted by Hurricane Irma. The commercial spiny lobster industry was severely impacted through the loss of traps during the height of the season. We hope this waiv- er will help the industry, which is one of the most economically important fisheries in Florida, get back to work,” said Jessica McCawley, director of the FWC’s Division of Marine Fisheries Management. The commercial spiny lobster season is open from Aug. 6 through March 31 annually. While the tag fee for the 2018-2019 spiny lobster season is waived, commercial harvesters do need to submit the order for the tags and affix them to their traps prior to the August opening.
