CNN Special Evidently Scheduled, "The Law and Bigfoot."

Guest Editor-Blogger: Ann Fletcher

Linda does anybody know who Clifford Morgan is? I was watching CNN tonight and there was a short clip on this sheriff deputy and I would guess Bill Emery by his picture on this blog of a upcoming special on Bigfoot. They said they want to try and film it in April for a summer special, "The Law and Bigfoot."

Anyway this Morgan was talking to a reporter about what happens to a cop when they run into Bigfoot. There was this other guy standing beside him with these big casts and saying people are being harassed by the state of Oregon. It was a commercial clip. By the way, I like your blog. I always try to read your articles in the paper.

License Again Suspended

Regarding: "You Should Say What to a Cop?"

I'm the one that called the police after seeing bigfoot near Loon Lake. When I told of this on the blog there was a article from NABS on here. The NABS person said he had talked with Oregon DMV and a man named David House told him they NEVER have suspended a license because of a bigfoot report. When the other man and I reported it I believed what NABS said.

 Well, yesterday I got a suspension notice from DMV, stating my licence has been suspended till the time I can pass an exam by a psychologist. Then I must pay a $75 dollar reinstatement fee. I contacted the other person who saw it and he too got the same thing Thursday. We thought it was the right thing to do by reporting it because of the danger of somebody hitting it.

 I wish people would not write untrue things stating it's OK to report it and then find out It's not. I will admit me and the other man did tell the OSP that it was a bigfoot because that's what it was.

I'm sorry to hear this, but for several weeks now we have been aware that this practice was occurring. Did the letter say if you will have to pay for the psychologist? I'll be passing by the Loon Lake turnoff tomorrow. Was your sighting on the Loon Lake road itself and if so how near the main road along the Umpqua? Thank you for commenting. We do need to know the truth of this matter. No matter what reason the police use and I guess it is reporting a false report on an animal not thought to exist, it is happening and  people are having their licenses suspended....Linda Newton-Perry

Gina Answers Perry's Questions

Yes Linda, I do have to pay for the exam it's $325.00 at a Eugene doctor I've never heard of. Also my insurance Co will find out because DMV said in the notice they have sent a copy to Farmers. I'm very upset, I thought the police were to protect and serve not to harm us. My only wish now is that I can get my license back.

Gina, remember that not very many people have seen this animal, and you are one of them. Please try to find pleasure in this. We are hoping that the CNN program will get the word out on how to go about reporting a bigfoot sighting and not get licenses suspended. The program has not been filmed yet, and we certainly hope it will be soon. Please keep us informed. Your experience will help others. ...Linda Newton-Perry
