THIS IS A SUMMARY OF UPDATES AND EVENTS RELATED TO THIS CASE:
Craig Woolheater of Cryptomundo is reporting the following:
Overnight AM - Overnight AM producers have been contacted by a man claiming to have found Bigfoot living in his backyard somewhere in North America (Location: Confidential). The evidence is substantial based on eyewitness testimony of a man whose life has been turned upside down by the creatures, a family of four; two adults and two infants, who bed down in his backyard every evening. UFO Magazine & Clearly Skewed Entertainment has dispatched a film crew to the area to document the events as they unfold on camera.
Tonight, Mike (last name withheld), a 70 year old veteran with no interest in the field of Bigfoot research, will join Lan Lamphere and the Overnight AM radio show audience to describe the events of the past few weeks and his encounters with this family of Bigfoot who have taken to living in the forest behind his home appearing every night to bed down in his backyard to escape biting mosquitos.

From Cryptomundo - Listen to the program here. You will need to open the file with one of the followings applications: iTunes, RealPlayer or WinAmp.
I have contacted William Birnes, publisher of UFO Magazine and a facebook fan of Cryptomundo by the way, to see if he can share any additional details regarding this case.
I have only had a chance to listen to the first twenty minutes or so of the program, so I have not listened to “Mike” or any of the investigators who were guests of the show.
What do the readers of Cryptomundo think after listening to the program?
Lan Lamphere said on the show that he had contacted the BFRO and that Darcy Stoffregen of Maple Ridge, British Columbia was investigating.
NOTE: since the time this was posted, a few discrepancies have/are developing. Nancy Birnes of UFO Magazine states...“I don’t know who wrote that at the Overnight AM site, but no film crew has been dispatched. Possibly someone will go there and check it out, but at this point nobody has.” So, we'll see what happens. Frankly, I noticed the original announcement a few days ago but waited to see what was going to develop. I'll attempt to keep this updated. If anyone has further information on this, please feel free to comment or contact me...Lon
UPDATE: 1:30 pm ET - I just listened to the interview...I think there may be something to this. One of the local law enforcement officers had made a report of seeing a 'naked woman covered in hair' eating from dumpster sometime before this sighting was reported to Bill Birnes at 'the History Channel'. My theory that most Sasquatch type creatures are non-terrestrial (alien visitors) may be bolstered by this encounter...namely because this group of creatures seem to be in a small forested area in a urban setting. The group has been dumpster diving behind a nearby restaurant according the witness. I feel that these creatures come from an alternative universe or plane. Like spirits, I think that these entities and others can move across the great divide between our worlds. Yeah, I know it sounds fantastic but I have come to this theory based on my experiences and the thousands of eyewitness encounters by others. BTW, this story is burning through the internet today...Lon
UPDATE: 4:15 pm ET - OK...a reader, Bill Green, talked to the Overnight AM producer by telephone and found out that Lan Lamphere will be presenting further evidence tonight (July 8th - 10pm ET / 9pm CT). I don't know if they're intentionally stringing this out but I'll keep an open mind nonetheless. If you want to listen to the show, go to Overnight AM for the live stream. You will need to setup a free account for access. The location has not be disclosed...but there is some speculation. Like I mentioned earlier, BFRO has been contacted and they are sending a crew there. I really hope they warned the witness to avoid 'our friend Tom' from the 'Georgia Bigfoot Hoax' and other fiascos...Lon
UPDATE: 8:50 pm ET - Well, cryptozoologist Darcy Stoffregen, who was interviewed by Lan Lamphere in reference to this sighting, has posted the following statement on his Facebook profile "Not involved any more. He never called yesterday like he said he would and I just found out why". Stoffregen was suppose to hook up with the witness 'Mr. Mike' I think. Anyway, his message was too vague for me to understand what he meant. BTW, the original radio interview of 'Mr. Mike' was conducted this past Friday...Lon
UPDATE: 10:10 pm ET - Lan Lamphere of Overnight AM is reporting on his live show that there were actually 2 reports of a 'hairy woman' before the original report. Starting the show, Lamphere stated that the Sasquatch report is 'absolutely true'. Seems that the Sasquatch have migrated towards the front of the house and 'Mr. Mike' states he is communicating with them. Also, more Sasquatch have arrived and there are at least 2 infants! A private investigator was hired to perform a background check on 'Mr. Mike'...and he checks out OK. The PI was at the location for 2 hours and confirms that the Sasquatch are REAL (one apparently walked up behind him in the dark and grunted) and there are PHOTOS! A crew is now on the way to investigate this weekend. BTW, the location is a northern U.S. state...that's all that has been disclosed so far. Stay tuned...Lon
UPDATE: Sunday July 11th - The following is from Impossible Visits: Bigfoot/Sasquatch Research with Live Daily Updates. I'm not positive as to the validity of the claims posted but it seems to be on the level. I am posting this at 11:25 am ET:
16 hours ago: Man with Sasquatch Behind his House: UPDATE.
A very capable researcher, whom I know well and can vouch for, will be at the property tonight, July 10, and for the next several nights, if he can confirm "Mike’s" claims. He has thermal cameras, etc. Let's all keep our fingers crossed that he is able to document the...situation without disturbing the visitation, or "habituation," that
may be occurring.
4 hours ago: Man with Sasquatch Behind his House: UPDATE.
My colleague has been able to determine that "Mike" was simply seeing things. "Mike" himself came to realize this during the course of the night on-site, when the "creatures" did not materialize before the thermal cameras. His initial account was compelling, and persuasively articulated, so I think the responsible follow-up was performed. Yes, this outcome is disappointing, but let's look at it, also, as good news: It restores Sasquatch, for us, to its true nature, which is NOT to set up camp night after night in someone's backyard, allowing him to come near them. If this were their MO, the species would not have been able to survive alongside us for eons, at least not as an autonomous creature not dominated by Homo sapiens.
Now, this was received by me from Lan Lamphere's radio network:
On July 12, 2010, the complete story of our friend “Mr. Mike” will be revealed on Overnight AM. The team of researchers, “Hero’s”, that took on this case have made history. The Bigfoot Researchers world was turned on it’s head, discredited, abused and shamed by those looking to profit from the popularity of Bigfoot’s legend a little more than a year ago.
Bigfoot Researchers, world wide, have been redeemed publicly, and communally, as of today.
Tune in On Monday, July 12, 2010 to Overnight AM to get the complete, and full, story of “Mr Mike” and his reported encounter with a family of Sasquatch, and the investigators that broke the case wide open and restored all Bigfoot Researchers credibility.
NOTE: Was Lan Lamphere simply stringing this out in order to gain listeners? I'll update this as other information comes forth...Lon
