Announcement: Bigfoot Ballyhoo has been under attack, in the past, by a couple of people who wished Ballyhoo and its editors to look as if they were hoaxing information.

One of the biggest examples would be the claim that we made up the ESP Team, Bill Emery, Cole Saxton and the late Hank Parchell. A well-known bigfoot researcher found photos that looked like Emery, Saxton and Parchell. He claimed the three to be the real men and not any part of the ESP Team. (In fact, he claimed there was no ESP Team).

And then while the Emery Team was processing trail cam photos a couple were sent to Ballyhoo. These photos turned out to be well-known bigfoot photos, one from a movie and one of Patty. The technician’s son that was processing the trail cam photos replaced the real photos with fakes. In good faith Emery sent the dallied-with photos to Ballyhoo. When it was found out what happened it was explained.

Another photo of a footprint with a believable history was given Ballyhoo to post. Turned out to be Tim Fasano’s photo from Florida. Again, we’ve given explanations for each occurrence. We were hoaxed.

We in time recognized each hoax and explained what happened

Guest Editors-Bloggers regarding license suspension after reporting a Bigfoot sighting.

blmfield:
I can guarantee anybody, that if they report a Bigfoot to BLM or USFS their name will never be made public to any police agency. We have a very strict anonymous policy. We need people to report it if they encounter them.

makes no sence:
Let's see here, if a Bigfoot walks out in front of a car on a highway, like US 101, and if the person reports it, their license is toast. But if they don't, and another car hits the thing and people get killed, then what will they do to you for not reporting it?

Now my husband was a CHP in Redding and he tells me the suspension is just an example to others, that reporting a Sasquatch will not be tolerated. Even though he and I believe they're real, the state doesn't want to hear about reports about it. This practice should be outlawed by all the states, because as a driver you have the obligation to report any unsafe situation.

A question for Dale Saxton

Anonymous asks: Dale, can you say how many people are reporting these things in Oregon?



Guest Editor-Blogger, Morton, has this to say about suspending DL for reporting a Bigfoot to Police:

My wife is an attorney, so I asked her if it's legal. She said most of the "Stuff" the state does is NOT. But she said there are many so-called reasons the states use to suspend a license; folks don't realize it till it's too late.

She said basically if the state pulls your DL, it's up to the driver or person to prove that they are safe to drive. The state says that driving is a PRIVlLEGE, not a right. That's how they get away with it.
