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

I have met Emery and Parchell in Person. I have not met Cole Saxton yet. This on and on about these men not existing is BS. You would wonder were these negative people are getting this information from.

Emery runs a contract cutting outfit and had sub-contracted with my company for 13 years or better. I think everyone is missing the point when they wonder why Bill is not known to many bigfoot organizations. He most likely doesn't feel that being a star is important.

With all the trickery going on lately I would certainly agree that someone is working hard to discredit him. I looked at the footprint picture and feel that the man that claims it is his in Florida is not being truthful about the picture. It looks to be doctored up on his site.

Many people in bigfoot land want to keep the cloud of suspicion going on other researchers. I'm sure this can all be tracked to one individual back east if someone had the time to do some IP and DSA investigation. It is more than possible the trouble is originating from a known source of trouble in New York.

For Frank R. and anyone who is genuinely concerned for the Perrys and for this blog: Linda has nothing to prove. The questions and charges that have been slung at the Perrys are pointless and counter productive.

If the men of the ESP team don't exist, then so what? Nobody has spent any money except these men. When one of the regular readers here even offered a donation, it was declined. None of the questioners has lost so much as a penny.

On the other hand, if all these fascinating posts on Ballyhoo are genuine, then the human race has been deprived of some powerful information. Notice I said "the human race"; not the so-called Bigfoot community.

The team of volunteers collected specimens and photographs that would have added a lot to the zoological book of data. We've all been robbed of that data by a few churls who wanted to plagiarize and corrupt the data.

The men who put their money, and their physical safety on the line have paid a very high price to collect the data. And now they're paying again, rather than allow this valuable information to be corrupted. What does it matter to anyone whether Ms Newton-Perry has ever physically met the men who did the field work?

There have been silly people making unreasonable demands on this blog, claiming to have been "burned". Nonsense! You haven't spent a penny, not even a few minutes of honest work time, to get to see the data. And you're not entitled to anything that the Emery group, or the Perrys, don't choose to publish. If you're not content with the blog, just stop clicking on the link.
