The Rickmat Creature

So Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer (link to their site) may have found a sasquatch corpse, now dubbed the "RICKMAT" creature, I thought the story was over when they posted a confession video on youtube, now gone from their account, they didn't confess to hoaxing the body part mind you, but the video is pretty damaging to their credibility. I don't know if it was in aid of reducing the amount of attention they were receiving but it seems likely.

By the way here's that video...

You can also see some of their previous videos here, probably won't last to long.

The earliest news report I could find is from Fayette Daily News, which should give you the low down of who they are and what they got.

After watching the above video I stopped following the story up until a few days ago when I saw a clip of Tom Biscardi on Fox News talking about the whole thing which peaked my interest again.

Turns out they're holding a press release today or tomorrow or something (the whole I'm from NZ things confusing me about the dates) where new evidence will be revealed, there's also been quite an amount of mainstream media coverage of late.

There's also a photo of the supposed creature floating around the net, though it has been quickly likened to a costume that's actually available for purchase, some where. From the comparison picture at that link it's not looking to good.

Well, that's enough mess from me, I've got a little case of information overload. The Blogsquatcher's doing a nice job of keeping track of all the latest developments, I caught up with most of them there, great work mate.
