From Eric Altman:
There is no hidden agenda. there is nothing on my end to gain on our end of this other than following up on this claim to prove any legitimacy to it. One of our members is meeting with a police officer tomorrow to find out what they know so we can wrap this case up. It’s as simple as that. If you have been reading my posts on this, I have said from the beginning. This is only a rumor!
The reason I am not releasing what we know so far is because the investigation is not completed yet and we do not have all the facts. It will not be until tomorrow when the investigator meets with the police officer. There are a few unanswered questions and they should be resolved by the meeting with the police department tomorrow. Once that is done, than the three of us will write the report up based on the factual information we have collected.
There is no proof at this point and time that a Bigfoot was shot and a body recovered. So please everyone, just take a deep breath and calm down. I am not going to throw bits and pieces out there there just to satisfy impatient people. Once we have all the facts, we will post something based on the facts. At this point and time, as Ive said from the beginning. This is a rumor and so far there is nothing to support the claim.Eric Altman via Facebook
We have closed the case. A report is being written with the factual data and info. Should be released this evening.Eric Altman via Facebook

Well the truth is we dont really know.
OYE
This has to be the real deal!
one day one of these will be true….
Great work by the PBS. This shows how easily something innocent can happen and be turned into possibly the greatest scientific discovery known to man, when in reality it was all just one mistake after another.
1) old man mistakes bear prints for bigfoot tracks and calls in to police to investigate
2) turkey hunter accidentally shoots another hunter
3) dispatch only partially heard by another person who combines the bigfoot call in with the hunting accident
4) helicopters routinely fly by the same area
All of this added up to nothing, but it certainly did appear promising at first report.
At any rate, good job reporting! Kudos to those involved. This is how its done!
Like I stated before, nothing to see here people!
It turns to be what I suggested before.
