Fields family faces charges in Alaska fishery fraud case involving illegal permits
A high-profile fishery fraud case has surfaced in Kodiak. After a lengthy investigation, the Alaska Wildlife Troopers have filed criminal charges against four members of the Fields family and their company, Fields & Sons Inc. Charged are 69-year-old Duncan Fields, 64-year-old Wallace Fields, 66-year-old Beth Fields, and 67-year-old Leslie Fields, all residents of Kodiak. The charges stem from alleged violations of Alaska fishing laws and regulations committed between 2020 and 2024. According to the Alaska Wildlife Troopers, the Fields family illegally transferred commercial salmon setnet permits by falsely gifting them to crewmembers, only to reclaim them later—actions strictly prohibited under state law. more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 17:30
