Indiana Man Who Brokered Bigfoot Deal Was Friend of Biscardi

William Lett Jr. wants his Delaware County friends and business associates to know: He’s not a Bigfoot kinda guy,

“I don’t know anything about Bigfoot,” the local builder told The Star Press in a weekend interview. “I don’t have an opinion on Bigfoot.”

So how did Lett, a local commercial builder who works on the national level, end up brokering a $50,000 deal between two Georgia men who claimed, in mid-August, to have the remains of the legendary backwoods creature in a chest freezer?

And when the unlikely story was confirmed to be a hoax, why was Lett the victim of the scheme who filed a theft report with Georgia police?

Lett is a longtime friend of Bigfoot researcher Tom Biscardi, who — when news of the Georgia “discovery” broke on Aug. 14 — asked Lett to represent him by going to Georgia and making a quick deal for the purchase of the remains just in case it turned out to be the real thing.

The deal ended up including a side trip to Eaton-area property owned by Lett, where Bigfoot hoaxers Matt Whitton and Rick Dyer — along with their prize, frozen in a block of ice — spent the night before traveling on to announce their “discovery” in California.
