Man kills friend thinking he summoned Bigfoot to eat him: Affidavit

A man in Oklahoma is accused of killing his friend on a fishing trip Saturday after he believed the friend had summoned the legendary Bigfoot monster to eat him.

Larry Sanders, 53, was taken into custody this weekend and is facing a first-degree murder charge, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said.

Sanders allegedly killed Jimmy Knighten on Oklahoma's South Canadian River during a bare-handed fishing trip gone wrong, according to a report.

The two had a fight that ended with Sanders striking and strangling Knighten, Sanders confessed, according to authorities.

The victim's body was found Sunday, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said.

Sanders said he killed Knighten because his friend "intended to feed him to sasquatch/Bigfoot," an affidavit read, according to the report.

I’d love to see the look on the jury members faces when Bigfoot is called as a surprise witness.

The Court TV ratings would be through the roof!

The Bigfoot tale was only a cover story. What really happened was this: Sanders’ brother was there noodling away in the river, when he was pulled under by the biggest catfish he had ever seen. At the bottom of the river, he saw a gleam of gold. He pulled his hand free of the catfish’s mouth and grabbed the gleaming object, a perfect ring of gold. He showed this to his brother, who claimed the Ring, saying it was his by right; it was his birthday present. The two brothers fought and Larry was victorious. He later slipped on the ring, and was able to slip away from the police.

Highly asymmetric face, just like Jared Loughner (the Gabby Giffords shooter). Possible indication of a fissure in his personality. The split-off version tends to be nuts.

Not someone you’d want to go into the woods with, as they say.

Especially when Mr Sanders is killed by Bigfoot in the courtroom. Can’t unsummon Bigfoot. Poor guy is going to get a foot print in his head.

I knew Jared. I, among others, used to debate politics against him on a daily basis for around a couple years up until a few days before his shooting spree. He was as far leftist as they came. Yet, when his identity became known, the media attempted to pass him off as a right winger and blamed Sarah Palin for his actions as well.

Looks like the Washington Examiner writer wanted to leave this part out. There was a drug.

Never, ever go fishing with a Democrat.

And never go hunting with a Cheney.
