A little more work and one would realize that the shot is a buckshot and would account for the multiple bullet wounds on the victim. If you read the article above it makes it appear that the victim had been shot multiple times.
Also, it is worth noting that the hunting party included three other persons and that Strachan himself called the police to report the accident.
They have yet to explain HOW Technology has put them outside the law. If you read the Lotteries and Gaming Act of 1969 it clearly defines what the words in the ACT mean and then states under what conditions they are illegal.
The Act says that "Machines" includes ANY Apparatus.
“lottery” includes any sweepstake and any game, method or device whereby money or money’s worth is distributed or allotted in any manner depending upon or to be determined by chance or lot, held, drawn, exercised or managed whether in The Bahamas or elsewhere or upon the basis of the outcome of a future contingent event whether occurring in The Bahamas or elsewhere and also includes the game called or known as “numbers”;
