Bigfoot hoaxer confronted by news reporter, he says he's 'sorry folks', that he didn't lie, but only "hoaxed". And it was all for fun and some Good News to help us all heal from the war. He didn't mean for it to go this far. He didn't know FOX News got beamed around the world because they have to pipe sunshine into his town. And that the pain pills prescribed for his heroic OJI got him feeling all special and creative and shit. And he didn't take no money and can't we all just get along and lets go drink a case of beer etc etc....Hell, if I got on FOX News, I'd tell everybody I had a Bigfoot too, and big Thumbs, haa ???From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:They claim their hoax was not for profit, but Atlanta residents Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer received $50,000 from a California Bigfoot tracker who now plans to sue to get the money back.The two Georgia men's tale of having found a Bigfoot carcass in the North Georgia woods really started to stink when California Bigfoot enthusiasts finally examined the body and found it was just a costume."There will be legal action" said Catherine Ortez, who works for Searching for Bigfoot, Inc. in in Menlo Park, Calif. The organization paid for rights to the men's story and their find. "If this was a joke, it was very methodical and thought-out," she said.http://www.ajc.com/news/c ontent/metro/clayton/stories/2008/08/20/ bigfoot_hoax_lawsuit.htmlhttp: //www.wsbtv.com/news/172 46564/detail.htmlATLANTA -- In an exclusive interview with Channel 2, two Georgia men said their bigfoot hoax was a joke and that they never intended for it to go as far as it did. The Clayton County police chief said he did not find it funny and he fired one of the men from the department.The men confessed to Channel 2 they bought a costume off the Internet and filled it with possum roadkill and slaughterhouse leftovers."It's just a big hoax, a big joke," said Dyer. "It's bigfoot. Bigfoot doesn't exist," he said."I don't believe it does affect my credibility at all because this is bigfoot," said Whitton. "It would be one thing if I came out and said that I had something else that is tangible or real, but right now, as far as I'm concerned, there is no real bigfoot."Lister said Dyer and Whitton have committed no crime but they've retained him. "There has been some threats made to them for both civil and criminal prosecution," said Lister.Channel 2's Mark Winne asked, "Did you start thinking, 'Oops, I'm lying, this isn't just a joke?'" Dyer said, "Well, we told 10 different stories. Everyone knew we were lying." http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/clayton/stories/2008/08/21/bigfoot_theft_claim.htmlThe two Georgia men who admitted pulling off the Bigfoot hoax claim to be good ole boys just out for a laugh.But an Indiana man who says he paid the duo $50,000 for a Bigfoot body alleges "they're cops that perpetrated a fraud."William Wald Lett Jr. of Eaton, Ind., filed a theft complaint Thursday with the Clayton County police against two men who allegedly took his money. Though the men are not identified in the complaint, authorities think they are former Clayton police Officer Matt Whitton and former corrections officer Rick Dyer.Lett said he brokered and videotaped the transaction on behalf of Tom Biscardi. Biscardi said he'd repay the loan to Lett at 50 percent interest within 90 days.Lett, 56, said he met the men the night of Aug. 14 in the Clayton County Justice Center parking lot, handed over cash, followed the men to a nearby house and loaded a freezer containing a frozen, furry object onto a trailer.Lett said a third, unidentified man guarded the Sasquatch "corpse" at the house. "They were really on edge," Lett said of Whitton and Dyer.When Lett got back to Indiana, the object thawed and was revealed to be a Halloween costume."They were in a panic about getting that money," said Lett, who calls himself "an investor," not a Bigfoot tracker.Lett said that once the hoax was revealed, Whitton and Dyer contacted him to apologize for taking his money."They told me they wouldn't have taken it if they had known it belonged to me," Lett said. "So I told them to just give it back and put an end to it."They refused, allegedly telling the financier they had planned to make some $500,000 from their hoax."They're not quite grasping the fact they've committed a felony," Lett said.Clayton Police Capt. Greg Dickens said suspects are not identified in incident reports until charges are filed. The case may be assigned to a detective today."I think the solvability expectation in this case is pretty high," he said.Whitton, 28, was fired Tuesday after six years with the police department. Dyer worked at three different state prisons, according to Georgia Peace Officers.However, he now sells used car over the Internet and drives a truck for Big Foot Towing Co.
