Georgia police officer claims Bigfoot sighted

JONESBORO, Ga. (AP)- A Clayton County police officer is among three people claiming the dead body of a Bigfoot has been found in Georgia.

Officer Matt Whitton plans a news conference Friday with California resident Tom Biscardi and former corrections officer Rick Dyer to show photographs and the results of DNA testing. They say the evidence will prove the existence of the legendary man-ape found in north Georgia.

Biscardi has been a full time, professional Bigfoot hunter for at least three years.

Whitton is on medical leave from the Clayton Police Department, where he has been employed for six years. He tells the Clayton News Daily that people who call the creature a hoax are just jealous.

If officer Whitten or any of the three people who have the "corpse" of a species that is humanoid they better have the crime lab does an autopsy. If big foot has been murdered just so someone can get a pic and prove that they exist then they should get the death penalty. We must treat our big foot population with the same respect as humans plus they are an endangered species.
