Open Case File  004-2015
Location: SE Oklahoma (Near Daisy, Ok)

Case Type: Eye Witnesses Observed Possible Sasquatch

Time Frame: 2015 (May)

Investigator: Troy Hudson, Sasquatch Genome Project

This report was submitted to the investigator through a law enforcement contact. The law enforcement officer (LEO) was contacted by the owner of the property where the incident occurred. The LEO contacted this investigator 2 weeks after the incident.
The location of the incident is private property and the owner along with several friends were camping over a weekend in order to cleanup up after recent storms and high winds that had knocked several large trees down across trails that are used to travel back and forth between the hunting areas and main roads that lead to the property. This particular weekend saw heavy overcast and no moon, light rain off and on most of the day and night. The second night of their stay proved to be a night everyone will never forget.
The day was spent running a chain saw and moving heavy brush, one of the campers (nicknamed Bill) said he remember while he worked, he had the uneasy feeling of someone watching him all day long. The property owner (nicknamed Adam) said he had felt the uneasy feeling in the past but just passed it off as being far out in the "boonies". The third friend (nicknamed Steve) said he remember hearing whistles coming from the woods during the day while one of the other's were running the chain saw, but never put much thought into it, he thought he was just hearing the chain saw making echo sounds through the trees. It was later in the night after it had gotten dark that it was only Steve by the camp fire thinking of turning in. All three had separate small pump tents that they were using. Steve began to hear what he described as "heavy foot steps" in the woods juts outside their camping area. The foot steps were coming from behind Adam's tent. Adam called out to Steve, "hey what the heck are you doing behind my tent?" Steve replied it wasn't him and that he was still sitting by the fire".
Both Adam and Bill got dressed and stepped out of their tent to find Steve sitting by the fire trying to add more wood. Adam saw a wild look on Steve's face and asked what's wrong.
Steve pointed over between Adam's and Bill's tent and said "I just saw huge (curse word) red eyes about 9 feet off the ground" All started putting more firewood onto the fire, Bill went back for his flashlight. Adam said he heard something breathing really hard just as Bill unzipped his tent.
Bill stepped back over the fire and started to scan the dense woods behind their tents. Just then all three heard something crashing through the woods behind them, they spun and Bill pointed his flashlight in that direction. Soon as he pointed it in the area of the noise, all three heard a loud growl with what sounded like to them tree branches being broken in a manner only described as someone being extremely angry. All three took turns retrieving rifles and hand guns from their tents and vehicles. Adam was asked by Steve and Bill what the heck is on your property, "Bigfoot?" Adam replied "I know I heard stories but I don't believe it" "It has to be a bear". They all started to scan 360 degrees around their camp, at one point Bill saw what is referred to as eye shine, he described it as two huge eyes reflecting off his flashlight. He yelled out and Adam said he just saw the reflection when whatever it was backed further into the darkness. When all three started to talk about what is going on, Adam said what ever the eyes are they are at a minimum of 8 feet above the ground or something in a tree.
It remained quiet the rest of the night, all three remained awake and the next morning they searched the area behind their tents, they discovered only 1 inch diameter branches being broke at the height of 7 feet but they were very skeptical due to wind damage within the forest from the heavy storms a week before.  



  Investigator's Notes: This investigator talked with the landowner over the phone on several occasions. His story never changed and you can hear the concern in his voice as to what they all saw that night. Since this incident he will only go to the property armed and with someone else. There are no structures on the property, he or no one else stays on the property. It is only used for camping and hunting throughout the year. "Bill and Steve" were interviewed over the phone separately and their stories also were similar to the owner's but their voices seem to be honest and with concern as to what they encountered that night left them with questions. All three are in their mid-30's and have more than 60 years of hunting and woodland skills combined. They all said it could be a bear, but it was Steve that said what he observed very briefly with the eye shine seemed like a man's eyes shining in the glimmer of light from the camp fire. He said he only saw it less than a second was very tall and the shadow of the tent from the campfire blocked his view. There were no odors associated with bears. While he was sitting there and Adam/Bill was getting out of their tents, he knew in his heart that wasn't a bear or another human being, but he was so afraid to say anything he just had the look of concern/terror on his face that is when Adam asked him "what's wrong".
This investigator believes they all had encounter with something that wasn't a bear or another human being, they really could not say for 100% certain what it was they saw or heard as to being a Bigfoot. They have never seen one or heard one before.  This encounter has been played and replayed over and over in the past by hundreds of witnesses. This encounter is almost exactly the same as others just the names and locations are changed. No pictures were taken of the tree branches, no foot prints, or other evidence were discovered. The landowner did say he has felt very uneasy at times being on the property as if being watched. (This is described by many other witnesses). This investigation will remain open.

Note: The property is located off a county road and is mountain side terrain. The property coverage is 160 acre plot.
