Glad to hear Mr. Sjoberg was able to avoid the possibility of a "Guilty" verdict, but...

Where this leaves Sjoberg if the Cortez family decides to file a civil suit against him, I don't know.
Fucked, that's where it leaves him. He "admitted" (legally, not morally or practically) to committing the act which caused this person's death. A lawsuit for Wrongful Death won't be far behind, probably with enhancements for the "negligence" he "admitted," and he will lose. Edited to add: I certainly hope I'm wrong about this. Unfortunately, this is America, and we all know what that means when it comes to suits at law.

Nor can I imagine what possible advice Sjoberg will have for fellow hunters.
Repeat after me:

"I do not wish to make a statement at this time. I do not consent to any search of my Person, Property, or Effects. I wish to contact an attorney."
