But "animal heads in his office"??? The guy was sick. He must have fantasised about killing all the time while at work.

The "heads and paws on the floor" were not there because he loved animals, but because he LOVED killing them.

When married you have to assimilate somewhat with your spouse. The fact she is a killer too isn't a shock. At worst, I'd figure she'd be a women who didn't have a problem with what her husband does.

I can't imagine an animal rights activist and a trophy hunter being married.

While my wife and i have some disagreements, overall, we're on the same page on most issues. And it's not that I MOLD her, we sorta mold each other. She has taught me tons about issues she is passionate and knowledgeable about (homeless issues, women's health, at risk youth) and I've taught her a lot of ecological issues.

Two homes, multiple expensive trophies and expensive trips—all this on a dentist's income. Makes one wonder.

Just want to know where he gets all that money. Has to be another source than dentistry.

Tonette Palmer also known as Toni Palmer is the daughter of one of the Jensen brothers that founded Norman G. Jensen.

NGJ founded in 1937 in North Dakota by brothers Norman and Gordon Jensen is one of the biggest Customs Brokers companies, today the company is run by Toni along her siblings Gordon, Dennis and Mary and her husband Steve Midthun. However Mrs. Palmer no longer owns it, left the company a couple of years ago and has no affiliation with the business- we got an email from Norman G. Jensen and told us that Tonette Palmer is a former owner of Norman G. Jensen customs brokers. In 2012 Norman G. Jensen was acquired by another customs broker company called Livingston International.

She stood by him during the sexual harassment fiasco.

So sad...
