Bigfoot Sighting Leads To Litigation
When Matt Moneymaker, owner of BFRO, had a Bigfoot sighting while on expedition in Kentucky, he probably never thought it would end up in court. The BFRO Bigfoot video footage, which was sold to Adrian Erickson of Newgrowth Capital Corp. for $20,000, was intended to become a part of a motion picture which is in production at this time.
According to Newgrowth Capital Corp v. Craig Woolheater and Cryptomundo, LLC, Woolheater declined to sign a non-disclosure agreement to view a clip of the Kentucky Bigfoot sighting film at the BFRO website. The lawsuit also alleges that Woolheater severed ties with the organization and, after receiving the clip from a BFRO member, posted it to his blog, Cryptomundo, which as it turns out is a LLC: Limited Liability Company based in California.

Having FORMERLY been associated with Moneymaker AND Woolheater, about all I can say is I am surprised the word “thought” even came into this headline…..I was under the impression others did that for them. Much like all of the field work they credit to themselves. In fact, Woolheater STILL has pics of me on his website that he has was asked to remove three years or so ago…and hasn’t.

I think it’s the mad drive for website content that leads some to violate issues of ethics and copyright. After all, most of us can’t go contact Bigfoot whenever we want, so we’ve got to find something a little different to put on our sites to fill up the pages. However taking someone else’s photos, refusing to delete photos or other content that violate ethical concerns, and breaking copyright are all things I hope to avoid here on Bigfoot Sightings. – and Rand, thanks for your comment – good to hear from you.

What a joke, this whole thing is. I know Adrian Erickson and I hope he ended up getting screwed, because he deserves it. My husband and I saw the video, it was good for a laugh.
