BFRLC Lunch date set for April 4th, 2008

Hello BF Researchers! We are just over 48 hours until the next BFRLC meeting. What an exciting time it has been for the club - the highlight of the past couple weeks has definitely been the addition of the BFRLC Trading Cards, check them out, print them out and collect them as they come. This weeks meeting will cover such topics as merchandising, our pending field trip, and the possible endorsement of a candidate by the BFRLC. So, what will it be for lunch? A trip to a taqueria? A nice rye bread with pastrami? Vegan soup? I can hardly wait, see you all there.

BfRLC Trading Cards Debut

Collect them all. These 4x6 in. BfRLC trading cards will debut every Friday until I can no longer think of new things to make a card for. The design and Illustration is once again thanks to our good friend Guy Edwards.

I plan on starting with famous researchers, Krantz, Green, Coleman and so forth, then famous Bigfoot characters like Patti and Clubfoot. Also I plan on famous Bigfoot locations like Bluff Creek,and Ape Caves.

So stay tuned every Friday for a new card, download it print it out, and hang it on your wall. Feel free to suggest new ideas and let's see how many of these we can do together. I believe next week we are going to post BfRLC Trading Card #002 "Dr. Bernard Heuvelmans" the father of Cryptozoology.

The Bf Defense Not Admissable

Convicted Molester Claims He Was A Victim of Bigfoot posted 3:45 pm Wed March 26, 2008 - STAFFORD COUNTY, Va.

Gene R. Morrill, 57, of New Ipswich, New Hampshire, had previously pleaded guilty in Stafford Circuit Court to 20 charges stemming from his efforts to solicit 13-year-old boys over the Internet.

According to the Freelance Star, Defense Attorney Terrence Patton cited Morrill's mental health issues in seeking leniency from Judge J. Howe Brown.

Morrill reportedly told an investigator preparing his pre-sentence report that he had been sexually assaulted by the legendary Bigfoot. Patton said Morrill really believes the assaulted happened.

"I take him very seriously because I know Mr. Morill has issues," said Patton.

"I've had a few that have claimed abuse, but never by a mythical creature," said Stafford County Detective Darryl Wells, who has built the case against Morills one online chat at a time.

"He is a sexual predator that targets children," says Wells.

Residents of the town don’t seem to buy the man's claims either.

"What? Are you serious," said one resident.

"I just don’t believe it," said another resident.

However, Morrill was determined to be mentally competent to stand trial. The judge also couldn't have been impressed with Morrill's criminal record, which includes a rape conviction involving a child in New Hampshire, according to the Freelance Star.

According to the evidence presented by prosecutor Jim Peterson, Morrill was one of several out-of-state online predators identified last year by Detectives Darryl Wells and John Chapman.

Morrill was convicted of five counts of attempting to take indecent liberties with a child, five counts of using electronic equipment to solicit a juvenile and 10 counts of reproducing child pornography.

Morrill is still facing similar charges in Prince William County (web|news) .
