CCA Star Tournament just annouced first prize rescinded

[zload]

The GMC Sierra Pick-up truck donated by Conley Buick GMC is back up for grabs!

CCA Florida STAR announced the winner of the GMC truck on May 31st. Shortly after, we received notification from multiple sources that the angler made false statements regarding the catch. Over the last two months CCA’s legal advisers investigated these claims. Based on their findings, the STAR committee has voted to rescind the first STAR tagged redfish prize.

To support the integrity of our tournament, and the tenacity of our rule abiding anglers, we will not compromise the rules for anyone. CCA’s loyal sponsors have put together a tournament that offers tremendous prizes, and we are eager to give them away to those who follow the rules.

Reckon why it took 2 months and and a team of lawyers to disqualify the catch.

With big prizes like that, there will be cheaters. Does anyone disagree with that? Probably took a while with lie detector tests and interviews with whatever " multiple sources" called in and ratted the angler out. I guess it takes a while to dot your i's and cross your t's when you dq a cheater.
