| I think we need to round up all the Bigfoots and put them into camps until we can determine whether they are a threat to national security...Okay, it's done. Every Bigfoot in existence is now in a camp. No need to thank me. |

Actually, it looks like they've extended it. The first I heard they were releasing it next month. Now it's September 1st. I doubt they can pull it off the whole time, though. They're leaving too many clues to their lies for the ever diligent Internet geeks not to get them.
On a side note, if you follow the links from that link to the original Nightwing posting there is another link to a video where they show the cop guy supposedly sitting by the freezer. It doesn't look that big, though they don't show the whole thing. I don't think there's enough detail of it there, but it would be interesting if the make and model could be tracked down to get the internal size. |

I forgot about the extension - good point. Did you watch the video (maybe same one you mentioned) where the cop and his brother rip on the people who exposed the "doctor" actually being his brother? I sense a lot of bitterness in that. They are just so pissed that they assumed anyone interested in bigfoot were all idiots and overestimated their gullibilty.
Not all the 'bleevers' are actually bleevers. Many have different levels of skepticism. Many on Crytomundo who ARE bleevers rejected this story from the beginning.
And Gren, they locked the thread down on Crypto after you mentioned the freezer..lol! |

| Did you read his responses on the thread linked from there? He was bitching about copyright infringement for photos taken off his web page and used to show the good doctor was, in fact, a member of the family. If he's as good a determining what a Bigfoot is as he is at interpreting law, maybe he's not lying. Maybe he's just a moron. What does it say that an officer's brother can't interpret straight forward fair use laws? |

That's something I've written about before. I've noticed how a person will be a bleever towards alien abductions but totally reject psychics, though each suffers the same dirth of evidence. Very very few buy all of it. |

This explains a lot...
| Quote: | Has a real Bigfoot finally been caught?
2008-07-24

Is Bigfoot for real?
Maybe...
A Clayton County Police officer says he and a friend have the body of a Bigfoot.
The animal -- a legendary, hairy hominid that supposedly lives in remote forests -- is said to be dead, frozen, and "shocking."
Matthew Whitton, a 28-year-old, who has been with the department for six years, and Rick Dyer, a 31-year-old former correctional officer, posted a video on youtube.com, last week, claiming to have the male Bigfoot corpse.
Whitton and Dyer co-own bigfoottracker.com, offering exploration expeditions in the North Georgia Mountains,
On their web site Whitton and Dyer announced an alleged discovery: "We have located a family of Bigfoot, and besides the clear photos and video, we have something even more shocking, a BODY."
Stay tuned...
The Clayton County Police Department responded to the news with an official statement giving the department some distance.
"That's his own personal business," said Police Chief Jeff Turner. "That has nothing to do with the business of the Clayton County Police Department. As long as he's not engaged in any type of illegal activity, his business is his business."
Turner said it is against department policy for any officer to represent himself or herself online, as an officer or anything other than an individual, private citizen, and said he does not know that Whitton has violated that policy.
Whitton is currently on leave, recovering from a gunshot wound to his left hand during a response to a Stockbridge armed robbery earlier this month.
The people who believe in Bigfoot and are searching for evidence responded to the announcement with a mixture of disbelief, ridicule and hope. The Bigfoot Field Research Organization, a California-based group claiming there have been 61 Bigfoot sightings in Georgia, officially described Whitton and Dyer as "idiots" and "clowns," and warned their claims are a scam to advertise their business.
Tal H. Branco, an Arkansas man who writes a regular column about Bigfoot research, said a lot of Bigfoot people think the whole thing's a hoax, but a lot of people are hoping, too, that they do have a Bigfoot body.
"Maybe Whitton did obtain the hard evidence required to solve one of the world's greatest mysteries," Branco said. "It is apparently being promoted by a police officer that has everything to lose as far as his profession is concerned, if it is a game, a hoax or just a joke. On the other hand, if it is true, and the Bigfoot body is in his custody ... his decision to announce it on an Internet web site before the body was examined by an expert certainly indicates a lack of good judgment."
In one video, posted online by "RDYER678," Whitton and Dyer interview a "pathologist" who is shocked at the Bigfoot, but then, in a follow-up video, the pair admits the "doctor of pathology" is actually Whitton's brother. Standing in a kitchen, Whitton's brother says to the camera, "Live and let live. What happened to that? Guys just trying to have a little fun, you know?"
Dyer said the claims are not a prank, though, and not just an attempt to have fun. Reached on his cell phone Tuesday, he insisted the body is real and will be unveiled on Sept. 1 on the web site.
"Why would we jeopardize Matt's job? Why would we risk the embarrassment of the backlash that we would get? We just have a lot to lose if this is a hoax ... I thought Bigfoot trackers and hunters were ridiculous and I made fun of them, to be honest, and I still do. They know nothing as fact. We do," Dyer said.
Dyer said the Internet announcement and the obvious lie were meant to draw detractors and "build hype." Other Bigfoot researchers were dismissed by Dyer, and he said he and Whitton are the best trackers because they "have a body."
He said the animal is about eight-feet tall, and about equal to the size of "three silverbacks," adult male gorillas, and nothing like the reported descriptions in the books.
"I've never seen anything like this," he said. "It's a lot more than animal."
Dyer did not say how they came into possession of the carcass, and declined to let a news reporter look at it, but swore it was being well-preserved and would be revealed.
Dyer said he and Whitton plan to sell the Bigfoot body and make a lot of money.
"As of right now," he said, "we've been offered a million bucks for it, from a very credible source. But we'll make 10 times that. This will change history forever." |

| Well if it's nothing like it's ever been described before, then it isn't a Bigfoot. Maybe he's got a black bear corpse in there. |
