Shocking! Guy Writes A Whitepaper On How Ketchum May Be Trying To Cover Her Tracks
Two days ago, we received an email from Jim R. McClanahan, a skeptic who's willing to change his mind about Bigfoot if science can prove its existence. He claims his interest in Bigfoot intensified when he started reading about Ketchum's Bigfoot DNA publication (self-publication). During his research into Ketchum's newly created science journal Denovo, he uncovered some startling clues suggesting Ketchum may be trying to cover her tracks about a science journal she claimed to have purchased called Journal of Advanced Multidisciplinary Exploration in Zoology, several weeks before it was supposedly renamed to Denovo Scientific Journal. Jim writes:
Shawn,
I've been following your blog ever since I first learned about the Ketchum study back in November. I've always had a passing interest in Bigfoot ever since I was younger, but now that I'm studying primatology, this whole fiasco has intensified my interest. I am a skeptic, but I am willing to change my mind if the evidence is compelling. I guess that is why I'm so annoyed by this thing. I've done some research on the various websites associated with her journal. I think I may have learned the sequence of events that took place before she published. It involved creating one journal with fake information to cover her tracks, and then creating another one so that she could say she bought the original one and renamed it. I've got a couple of blogs, one is highly specialized (so I can't post it on that one), the other is a history blog on a history forum. I posted it there because the contents have a looser format. Let me know what you think:

Best regards,
Jim R. McClanahan
I love Jesus! And bigfoot
ReplyDeleteThey are one and the same. They love you too.
DeletePwned! Any bleevers left? Let's take a count...
DeleteI used to be a believer, but Ketchum cured me...gee thanks doc.
Deleteamazing and wonderful evidence. Even breathing rugs need protection from humans and here's how to send me money!
DeleteLOL, Breathing Rugs need Protection!1 I almost spit my Coffee out on that one
DeleteJust riding in circles on my invisible bicycle.
DeleteGee I smart.
So does The Cryto Crew copy all Shaun's stories or does Shawn rip these guys off?
DeleteOn the plus side CC don't have Merchant popping up every day.
It's just more of the same BE nonsense, just another phony guy they've dug up/invented, this is nothing but a place run with the one purpose of trashing Ketchum and anything Bigfoot.
DeleteIt's totally bias, when did you ever see any serious news here supporting her, no it's deliberately painting the negative picture obviously because they know she's on the right track and thus a danger to the federal cover-up agenda they're hiding under with a fake (ape) interest in the subject.
agreed! She will become a legend in the scientific world. These people are making up stories because they are jealous of Melba and her findings!
DeleteShes a fraud. We get it already shawn
ReplyDeleteShe will be vindicated, when her raw data is uploaded to genbank.
DeleteIt will never be uploaded it's all a scam and she's been playing all the believers out there, telling you all what you want to hear.... Still want to make a donation to her bank balance er I mean foundation! Another charlatan, seriously you don't need to be a biologist, geneticist or have a PhD in anything to see this was bs from the start.
DeleteGive her time, this isn't over yet.
DeleteIt won't happen, hasn't everyone waited enough already?
DeleteI think she has had years of time
DeleteShe produced the study as promised. What do you mean not enough time/more time etc.? The damned thing is out, it's released. There is no more waiting for that eventuality. Since that occurred, the other following stages should occur too.
DeleteShe said genbank wouldn't accept her data, until she gets clearance from them. I'll give her the benefit of a doubt, I'm sure she'll come through.
Delete9:50 troll it is happening right now, dummy. You lose. Again.
DeleteCue the posts from Ketchum's inner circle.
ReplyDeleteOf course, do you really think we'll let these liars get away with it? LOL
DeleteCue, Anon 9:09 is a dumb ass...Shawn is a JACK ASS..and is so desperate to post something negative that he puts this crap up by a "critic" WTF....
ReplyDeleteWell then, perhaps you should refer him some positive stuff.
DeletePaid Ketchum operative @9:13.
DeleteActually unpaid JACK ASS...
Delete9:17, 10:45, twin skeptards jumping up and down raising their hands begging to be promoted to the rank of supertard.
DeleteTard on, boys, tard on.
Oh come on 10:45, the money should be rolling in from the manuscript sales. Talk to her and see if she'll put you back on the payroll.
Delete"Journal of Imaginary Zoological Studies"
ReplyDeleteThat's classic shit right there.
The Nocturnal Activities of Drunken Badgers. Science!
DeleteSCIENCE!
DeleteShawn I'm starting to think that maybe you are not pro Ketchum.
ReplyDeletehe's pro Smeja. And Smeja is just as big of a charlatan as Ketchum
DeleteShawn Hates Ketchum apparently. He keeps posting sceptic blogs!
Delete^^Why else would he be so truthful?
DeleteHe and the rest of the Tazer assholes are major fakers.
DeleteI like Team Tazer, but they are dead wrong on this Melba thing...They will owe her an apology.
DeleteTeam Tazer is just a bunch of loud mouth fools , who haven't done anything for the bigfooting community except cause everyone grief.
DeleteSomeone is willing to change their mind if science can prove something? That's quite a brave stance to take.
ReplyDeleteBrave stance, indeed.
DeleteNo, not brave. Once again it is treating science as Godlike:
Delete"If science says Yes, then I say Yes, ha ha and yipee yipee.
In other words, science is all, science is God, as long as science says it exists, I will then change my mind and agree it exists.
But only science can do that for me mind you! Science is best and the only thing in the world that can do this. If I see a Sasquatch myself clearly and indisputably for an extended period throwing dumpsters and pickup trucks into a lake, no that's not good enough for me. I will disbelieve.
I must have science. Science science science. Science is my God. I worship on my knees to science."
Yeah,no ones ever seen that so stick with proven science.Why? Because it's proven
DeleteScience is a gift from God. Medicine is a gift from God. The both go hand and hand. God bestowed the knowledge and tools to a select few humans to humanity. Doctors and Scientist are just one of multiple gifts from God to use. Thank you God for all your wonderful gifts.
DeleteA Christian
That very line from the guy tells us he's a fake.
DeleteOr reads the christian science monitor...bigfoot,gift from the devil?
DeleteIf there is a Bigfoot it's God's creation. That's all I'm trying to say. Science can prove or disprove if Bigfoot is real. Rumferlife, I've always respected your view point and never trashed a word you said. I guess you can't bring the Creator into this blog without getting slammed.
DeleteUs jews don't believe God created bigfoot but if that works for you okay
Deleteold testament god baby,angry,wrathful
DeleteRumferlife, I don't believe there actually is a Bigfoot. I'm just saying if there is such a creature, I'm sure he had his hands in creating it. You have your opinion and I have mine. I appreciate the jabs in the side also. I'm a Man, I can take it though. Peace out my Jewish Brother.
DeleteGood job skeptic, you can say what Bigfooters can't, or won't.
ReplyDeletePwned more than Mulder.
ReplyDeleteMulder's world has crumbled around him.
DeleteA mentally stable person would have seen it coming.
DeleteIt seems that mental illness strikes without regard to ones education.
DeleteMulder has already attacked the skeptics of the Matilda footage declaring that you can't prove it's fake. Incredible.
DeleteHe's right, you cannot prove it's fake. I'm waiting on him proving it's real however.
DeleteMMG
^^^ Yes it's incredible you cling to the credo of spending your life trying to prove a negative. We all think you'd have learned by now, but the mentally deficient and insane will repeat this behaviour automatically until they give out.
DeleteForget proving a negative.
DeleteShow me monkey and I will shut up.
You got monkey?
I didn't think so.
^ shut up welfare suck Tit . Go get your own evidence and quit waiting for others! Got a Job? Didn't think so moron!
DeleteThat monkey guy you ought to let a shrink know about his sexual problem is seriously demented.
DeleteFasano actually does have monkey
DeleteHad Dr. Ketchum published in the Journal of Imaginary Zoological Studies it would have saved us all an awful lot of rubbing and chafing.
ReplyDeleteAnd gave her some degree of credibility.
DeleteI'm sure Bigfoot is ashamed of Bigfootery.
ReplyDeleteHoax upon hoax upon...
You are wrong. This is all part of the Bigfoots' master plan and is transpiring exactly the way they had envisioned.
DeleteAgain...the people campainging for the existence of these mythical creatures are the same ones who continue to disprove their existence.
ReplyDeleteThey are doing a very good job of it too.
DeleteThat just blew my mind.
Delete9:39 a rectum-ravaged skeptard frustrated the study was released as promised. Also frustrated had fat-man surgery but is failing him, and that he is piling on weight despite the demise of The Twinkie.
DeleteTard on, skeptard, tard on.
^^The butthurt is strong with this one.
DeleteAbout an hour ago, I solemnly promised to take a gigantic dump. And guess what? I just got off the pot and I fulfilled my obligation (I'll send documentation of the proof for $30). So shut up skeptards!
DeleteThis guy found some very damning information.
ReplyDeleteSend in the clowns.
DeleteTeam Tazer is already here as anons.
DeleteWhat's a whitepaper?
ReplyDeleteIt's what brownpaper is called before it's used.
DeleteSo all that means is that Ketchum self published. Wow what a smoking gun!!! BFD.
ReplyDelete... while lying the entire way and claiming the study passed peer review.
DeleteProbably lied about it being submitted to a real journal, too. She is a clown looking for basic cable dollars and whatever cash she can suck out of the ignorant. Pathetic.
DeleteYou would think all the money she sucked out of Wally would be enough, but no, the minions have to contribute their share too.
DeleteOf course she lied! It's a longtime con, she scammed Wally first by overcharging him $400,000 and this and her foundation are the icing on the cake
DeleteI believe her. She hasn't given me any reason to think otherwise.
DeleteAbsolutely she's right which is why these trolls turds hate her, it's just a modern day witch hunt they're on. It's basically their job to comment here 24/7, could be UFOs or Bigfoot they don't want it revealed.
Deletethey are just afraid of the changes that will be put in motion, and threaten the beliefs they hold so dear to their daily lives, by the discovery of these beautiful/awesome forest dwellers.
DeleteThere is nothing to be afraid of people!
Busted! You greedy duplicitous conniving albino bitch! You should've just published a white paper, but no you wanted it all! You wanted all the glory and attention and now you've sabotaged any real research for the next 1000 years you dumb southerner!
ReplyDeleteYou are correct. Thanks to her, Bigfoot scientific research is dead.
Deleteshe's a good southern lady
DeleteKIN ISE HEEV SUM GAERLICS
DeleteAnon 9:50 believes anything he reads on here from anyone! What a stupid gullible idiot!
DeleteYour little stunt here with the latest attack on Ketchum isn't changing much, same bullshit of yours that the public sees through. The lady isn't budging, you damn geeks.
DeleteShe dares not at this point,thats fraud my friend
DeleteNuff' mudhelmets
ReplyDeletei need a peer review of this paper before i believe a word
ReplyDeleteUmmm that's the whole point here, there will be no peer review! You can't submit papers to real scientist when everything you have done prior to the submission has been a lie built upon lies. But... you can cough up your $30 and do some of your own reviewing LMAO
Deleteno peer? so this shocking cover tracks paper get no credibility?
DeleteKetchum will be vindicated. You guys will need to apologize. But you guys wont man up.
DeleteKeep it squatchy bro
Ya gonna bleeve this guy or Lindsay and he says it's good and peer reviewed.
ReplyDeleteYou gonna believe me, or your own lyin' eyes?
DeleteIt is with this paper that should be taken to court and charged with fraud. The analysis may have done but the publishing of it was disingenuous. It demonstrates false pretenses.
ReplyDeleteI could not agree with you more
DeleteThank you 10:36 !!! I have said this before.
It is a form of Fraud, to make money by indentional deception.
To use the fact that your are a Docter, to make people think your are a serious researcher.
It makes a Mockery of real Scienctist
Reminds me of Richard Hoaghland(Face on Mars).
Ken: Your absolutely right 10:36, fraud is fraud. This is perpetrated by a licensed individual. By publishing to sell and using credentials obtained and sanctified by oath, She just might have made a bad move here. Melba, Melba, what have you forsaken while chasing the coin?
DeleteSomeone should contact the prosecutorial authorities in Texas. The US attorney might be interested as well.
DeleteKen: I haven't read much, but if it promises as fact under color of licensed authority, it's open and shut unless facts are produced. Check it out.
DeleteSomeone could also file a complaint with the Texas State Board of Veterinary Examiners.
DeleteKen: for sure.
DeleteShe's a witch!! Turned me into newt, she did!....I'm better now.
DeleteYour daily attacks on her doesn't change the facts of this study, now go kiss government ass and tell them you're getting nowhere.
DeletePlease everyone stop fighting!!!
DeleteNo wonder these magical beings choose to hide from us! Can you blame them? Listen to yourselves!
An interesting bigfoot report here:
ReplyDeletehttp://panews.com/local/x2056620313/Bigfoot-sighting-along-Neches-River
Z!
Ken: I've recently been ask about a BIGFOOT safari, who is offering such a trek? Where are they leaving from? Are they guided? Sorry, It's a new Idea to me, just heard it by question and it peaked my interest.
ReplyDeleteCan I go?
DeleteKen: can I go too?
DeleteThe Aldo Denovo science journal. Bigfoots just a fantasy can you live this fantasy lie?
ReplyDeleteOoh, that's good. A thousand thumbs up to you!!!
DeleteI want to know one thing about Ketchum. Does she let Paulides do her in the taterhole?
ReplyDeleteGive it up jerkoffs, she ain't quittin'.
DeleteWhy aren't people discussing the psyonic properties of bigfoot? Dr. Ketchum discusses in her paper, in great detail I might add, the genetic origins of sasquatch telepathy and their abilities to migrate through various planes of existence.
ReplyDeleteYou know that eery feeling you get walking through a secluded forest by yourself? Sasquatch is watching you. Even if he is alone in his cave, his mind is constantly scanning the forests from the astral plane to protect his people from the "Iron-Landers" as the 'squatches refer to us.
Ok that's it LOL!!! . Telepathy??
DeleteReally???
Dont want to hear about Dr. Ketchum anymore and that.
I'm done, should have been done along time ago really.
I just cant help it LOL.
Can you guys turn out the lights when you leave?
Thanks!!!
We have been discussing the psyconic properties of bigfoot in great detail . . . . telepathically.
DeleteWell look what we got here, a typical bunch of uneducated scoffers who have not even read the paper claiming it is not scientific and other such stuff.
ReplyDeleteWell let me tell you this. Melba is one of the greatest scientists of our generation. The proof is in the pudding so to speak and you skeptics wouldnt know a bigfoot if it was right there in front of you on a slab. You would still deny its very existance. Saying all this makes bigfoot real of course, why? because you cant prove its not real. Therefore it is real. Simple.
I expect nothing less from you uneducated scoffers refusing to even look at the evidence.
I see what you did there...nice
DeleteWhaaaaat! She self published? Oh my Gaww.
ReplyDeleteKetchum and David would NEVER stoop so low as to fabricate data. This is SLANDER, SLANDER I SAY. Isp addresses are being collected for future use. You'll all see so enough when the paper comes out.
ReplyDeleteExactly, and I hope they sue these clowns' asses when it's all over.
DeleteKen: That's not Bigfoot, you were to close to someone's still or pot patch. When you get such feelings, watch out for the trip wires.
ReplyDeleteOr you could just summarize it like this: loonytunes.
ReplyDeleteHey we having Fun yet?
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen her report, but judging from others who have, I think her conclusions are flawed. I believe she knows this, but when this creature is proven real she hopes to go down in history as the discoverer who was initially scoffed at.
ReplyDeleteyou need to read it for yourself, the method she used to get it published has NOTHING to do with the paper. I know of 2 geneticist that HAVE read the paper and looked through the supporting Data and the are both convinced that she is on to something and her science is sound. BTW, They were BOTH skeptics till they went through the paper.
DeleteNow watch, As Professor Sykes from Oxford will come out and says that it is sound science as well, He will get the credit for it because of his reputation has not been crushed by the BF community.
PS, I bet ur a Obama supporter, i am just saying........
Sykes will vindicate Melba, when that happens, this blog will turn quiet in a hurry.
Delete^ Names of the converted Geneticist's or it did'nt happen. Just curious what does political affiliation have to do with Bigfootery?
DeleteSykes will vindicate Obama.
DeleteI think Dr Ketchum and her team did a FANTASTIC job and one day they will be recognized for their contribution to this subject and all you naysayers and hateful people will remain just as anonymous and foolish as you have ALWAYS been. Thank you Dr. Ketchum!
ReplyDeleteYes that may be true,but all the other stuff that is attached to it does not make any sense to me.
DeleteClap your hands to save the fairies...CLAP!
Deletesh*t in your hands and clap.
DeleteHow much money do you think she has made off of this so far?
DeleteShe can ride this DNA thing for the Rest of her life.
Interviews on TV shows, books movies ect.
Who wouldnt want to do it.
Easy money if you think about it.
No one gets hurt, it all in the name of ENTERTAINMENT not Science.
Again its Entertaiment!!!
Don't be a puss,say the word shit
DeleteIxnay itshay
DeleteOh shit,sorry ixnay
Deleteshe addressed all this in the interview, this site is the worst, it's bigfoot evidence, and he post skeptics
ReplyDeletedigging up crap that does not not change the results,
last time i'm coming to this blog and spreading the word to stay away. Next will find out shawn and rick dyer are best friends, wouldn't doubt it.
Hold it My Friend,
DeleteWho is the one Digging up CRAP.
I myself am a Believer, but I'm no fool and either is alot of people here.
We have fun here I admit, but most of us here have had enough of the False claims and Fake Videos and Pictures.
I think some of us are burnt out, so we just take it for what it is and have fun with it(just relax ok).
Refute the following and explain how these results are possible.
Delete3 DNA samples were collected from 3 individuals, years apart, at 3 separate locations hundreds of miles apart.
1 DNA sample was a piece of flesh with hair that was determined not be human or any known animal by Douglas G. Toler, MD, F.C.A.P.
The University of Texas – Dallas used the next generation Illumina platform and sequenced the 3 samples. The machine that was used a HiSeq 2000 next generation sequencer reported a “Q30” score on each sample to be above what is considered “a pure, single source sample” (non-contaminated). The scores were 88.7, 88.4 and 88.6, respectively.
When these 3 complete genomes were run against the GenBank database using a BLAST search no match was found. Therefor we can conclude we have a new unidentified species or better Bigfoot/Sasquatch.

DeleteSally here,
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm back now watching the show! I'm glad she fired me. I can now tell all in my new book: The Eve of destruction. Its about a group of bigfoot researchers trying to make a buck but, of course it backfires!!
Jim R McClanahan must have just been released from jail, and now he is on BFE perpetrating even more crimes. He is no more into primatology than the Pope is. Read all about him here and they have included his mugshot just in case you run into him on the street:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.mugshotsworld.com/JAMES-R-MCCLANAHAN
Try searching for Jim R. McClanahan on Facebook. You are confusing two different people with similar names.
DeleteThe Melba Mafia will destroy you if you dare challenge her.
DeleteYou know, there are likely a hundred Jim McClanahans out there, and implying that this is the same guy can get you into real legal trouble. This is exactly the kind of post that Shawn needs to delete, as with the "Sally here" posts and the others where people are illegally impersonating Bindernagel and others.
DeleteWhy hasn't the government stopped her?
ReplyDeleteThey're trying via this blog with snide ridicule and/or intimidations to tire her, ain't working though. Thank goodness.
DeleteI think that too sometimes!
DeleteI think that too sometimes!
DeleteI'm just upset that I can't read a scientific paper on The Nocturnal Activities of Drunken Badgers. I may have even paid $29.99 just for the giggles.
ReplyDeleteI've started my own journal for this exact purpose. I got some meth-head schizophrenic peer reviewers too.

What is the actual purpose of this blog? Am I the only one that thinks that this blog has run completely off the tracks? This place went from a serious bigfoot blog to the cartoon channel. Seriously, no matter how you feel pro,con or on the fence the nature of most of the post on here are just plain garbage!
ReplyDeleteIt's secretly funded most likely, some lame government ploy to discredit anything bigfoot.
DeleteLooney Toons channel here populated by only those half wit trolls who fail to realise the site only exists to earn Shawn an income from the advert's and hits.
ReplyDeleteCredibility? ZERO!!!
I only visit occasionally out of curiosity but even then it is less painful to stick a pin in my own eye.
The point that Jim McClanahan doesn't get, is that we know his game. We know that the National Bigfoot Bigot Coalition has had several years to come up with a plan to discredit the DNA study. We know that they are attacking it across a broad front. This article represents just one more of those fronts. This NBBC member has apparently been tasked with discrediting the DNA paper, not by attacking the science of the paper itself because that would be too difficult, but rather by attacking the method of publication. After all, the NBBC most likely had something to do with making sure that the DNA paper could not get published by a reputable science journal. The NBBC most likely has Ketchum telephones illegally wiretapped, in order to know who she was working with. Then the bullies moved in to make sure that Ketchum would fail. That is how it works in a country with Free Speech. You harass enough people to make sure that the Free Speech, IS NOT HEARD!

Operator error would be the easiest explanation. That may have occured when setting up the HiSeq or when setting up the parameters for the Blast search.
