Well, as much as the Cult of Rick Dyer would like for the rest of us to just shut up where Rick can pull off his latest hoax, it ain't going to happen. I'm not going to give him hugs and kisses and understanding. I'm going to give him my foot up his behind. He's nothing but a low down lying sack of dog ******.

You seem to be saying the sample wasn't labeled in any way, is this true or are you saying they didn't tell Family tree who the sample was supposedly from? There is too much that can be lost in translation from what you are saying so far.

Bravo Cisco, as usual you put things so eloquently, I agree, about his motivation, and more so having seen just how ardent and hostile the community can be, why take it to this level? I truly believe that if this were a hoax that he would be putting his family at risk more than in 08 when he was not entrenched in the community and had no idea what the reaction would be,

This is a very good statement as this is what RD has done in the past and, to a certain degree, continues to do. He attempts to make people feel "small" so he can make himself feel better. It's classic 1st grade, bullying, attention craving behavior. However, on this occasion, I'm not sure if I agree that this is his motivation. When he pulled his hoax, in 2008, there were many people on board with his frozen Bigfoot story. This time, there are very few believers. I know there are some, like FBFB, Chris Noel and some scattered members of this and other forums. Regardless, the majority of the Bigfoot community does NOT believe this particular story. Seriously; who's he going to ridicule? Chris Noel and FBFB? No offense to either as they have a presence in the Bigfoot culture. Of the two, Chris Noel is by far the most respected but his latest book has some pretty "out there" theories. FBFB is, as far as I can tell, not taken very seriously. They have followers and people do watch their videos but most of us take them with a grain of salt. I won't mention the scattering of believers as they don't use their real names and can't be publicly ridiculed. Anyhow, if RD thinks he will be able to ridicule the Bigfoot community, then he has not given this a lot of thought. RD is many things but he's not stupid. I don't believe he's in this in order to make people look bad. His motivation is something else and I don't think it's just money. RD is a man that's very tuned in to the way he's perceived in the public eye. Right now, he knows that he has no credibility and is mocked by most of us. He pretends that he does not care but it's obvious, by the way he ridicules those that do have respect, that he cares very deeply about the way we see him. I think what he craves, more than anything, is to be liked, respected and even admired. I believe he spends a great deal of time, imagining himself as a hero and a leader. He hopes to vindicate himself by proving that he's better than Meldrum, MM and other public Bigfoot personalities. Being the man that brought down a Bigfoot, would make him an instant celebrity in the Bigfoot community, as well as the general public. I think that this is what he wants most of all and what's he's been trying to accomplish all along. If RD really did kill a Bigfoot, back in September, then this theory makes sense. However, even if you don't think he did kill a Bigfoot, this theory still has a certain logic. Depending on whether you believe him or not, he has our attention and he's either waiting to unveil the "goods" or he's desperately working on a way to "trick" us into thinking he does. Either way, the allure of being or becoming respected, liked and admired is too much for him to just walk away and let it go. He will stretch this out as long as it's possible, just to keep feeling the high that he gets from being on center stage.

I posted this elsewhere but I think it applies here as well. Personally this topic has gone on so long all of these questions and issues are coming up for the third and forth time now. one big circle as earlier posts are now long forgotten. Remember this film footage of Erickson's was shown to John Green in a private viewing at his home and John was not impressed with what he saw. Also in the case of the Erickson project, many of the people he was relying on as contributors in the early going were exposed for hoaxing and other shenanigans over time. Adrian I be leave had the best of intentions but he did a very poor job checking out the credibility of those he was working with, Standing. Brisson, Etc, etc. He was at the Green summit in Harrison in April 2011, proclaiming the year of the Sasquatch! Well its now 2013 and the long awaited documentary seems to be staled indefinitely. Now this is only my opinion having only spoke to the man face to face once. But I think when the truth about certain people was reveled to him it took a lot out of his earlier enthusiasm for the whole thing. He was no different then many others in this field. Hoping that a big break through is around the corner so bad that common sense takes a leave of absence. Only to come back and slap you in the face. Resulting in the wind being taken from your sails so to speak. Just my opinion. I really hope I am wrong but I doubt it. Thomas Steenburg

Ok good night if i hear anything else I can pass along I will do so...I do think that LE in Vegas are gonna come knocking asking some hard questions

I am not privy to the complete Investigation and I dont want to be. Marshal are not involved per say my buddy called down there and TX LE agencies are talking with LV LE officers.

I am on a major crimes task force multiple agencies to include Us Marshal office . they contact their counter parts in TX. they have in turned contacted LV metro True but there is much more to it than illegal discharge of a fire arm in city limits ...

You couldn't be more wrong about Adrian. He knew exactly what he was getting into, and it wasn't for the money. He's far from ignorant; the guy came from nearly nothing, and is a self-made man. He's very smart, and is certainly not "blinded by dollar signs" when it comes to sasquatch research and furthering the field. Just because he hasn't fully disclosed his data, experiences, and motivations to a group of enthusiasts on the internet doesn't make him a nefarious, ignorant, or greedy person.
