Witness Account:
To whom this may concern, I am a retired law enforcement official. On or about the mouth of November 1989, I was in charge of a our Marijuana Eradication Program, Our agency planned a joint county operation involving many other law enforcement agencies. To get to the point, I was flying in Cessna 172 airplane, the pilot, a F.D.L.E. agent. We flew over a remote area of our county and I spotted two large animal,that appeared to be large monkeys, they were two of them, and it appeared that they had surrounded some wild pigs, I am assuming they were trying to gain a pig for food. Both of these animals were very large, possible over 6 feet tall, long red/orange tint hair,very wide shoulders. I spotted them and asked the pilot to turn back around and go over the field again, I pointed out to him these two animals, it surprised him, we made several more passes over the area, and I took photo's. I no longer posses the film, as it was turned in along with our case files..regarding this operation..Never the less the pilot stated No One Would Be-leave Us if we said anything, so I never mentioned it to anyone then. I later mentioned this incident to a Seminole Indian, a medicine maker, he said they, The Seminole have seen them in the swamps, he gave a name that they call them, but I don't remember. It is a possibility I might still have the film, but I doubt it as I think I turned it in. This is not a Fiction story but reality, I can take anyone to the location I have mentioned.
