San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin sued a local fisherman last week for illegally catching hundreds of Dungeness crabs in the protected North Farallon Islands State Marine Reserve.
State Department of Fish and Wildlife investigators said they found over 90 crab traps within the ecologically fragile area off Northern California, where fishing of any kind is prohibited.
The district attorney's lawsuit alleges Tran gained an unfair business advantage by illegally fishing in a Marine Protected Area. It is a misdemeanor for commercial fishing operations to work in protected areas, punishable fines ranging from $5,000 to $40,000 for a first offense, SF Gate said.
