Oklahoma Man Says Bigfoot Made Him Kill His Fishing Partner, Police Say

Larry Sanders was arrested for the murder of his fishing partner, who he says had “summoned Bigfoot” to off him, according to police.

Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation
A day out hand fishing for catfish on the South Canadian River in Pontotoc County, Oklahoma, has turned into a murder investigation after a man claims Bigfoot forced him to kill his friend.

Larry Sanders, 53, stands charged with first-degree murder after allegedly admitting first to a family member and later to police to killing his noodling fishing partner Jimmy Knighten, who Sanders claimed wanted him dead by the hand of the mythical monster Bigfoot. Noodling is a popular fishing technique used in the southern United States to catch a fish by sticking one’s hand in its mouth.

The local sheriff, John Christian, told local media that Sanders “appeared to be under the influence of something” when he told police he had struck, strangled, and then drowned Knighten.

“So, his statement was that Mr. Knighten had summoned ‘Bigfoot’ to come and kill him, and that’s why he had to kill Mr. Knighten,” Christian told local reporters.

Christian said that the confession “always makes it easier,” but that the difficulty came in trying to find Knighten’s body, which had floated on the river currents and was not discovered until more than 24 hours after the deadly incident.

Christian said authorities first arrested Sanders on an outstanding warrant and charged him with murder only after Knighten’s body was retrieved from the river bed.

“You still have to prove all the elements of the crime, and what the suspect is telling you, you have to prove that that’s actually what happened,” Christian said.

Christian said that the local prosecutor would likely push for the death penalty if Sanders is found guilty in the case.

Not sure why it's not embedding, put pretty awful White Trash/Racist shit from Sheriff and other public officials. Bad enough the Governor is calling for everyone to resign immediately.

That's fucked up. Didn't there used to be a poster here or TOS who talked about growing up in that part of Oklahoma and saying it was called "Little Dixie?" That might've also been his handle.

[crash_davis 23113]

Found guilty. Who would've guessed meth had a role in this killing, especially in Oklahoma?

A man who claimed he killed his friend because he believed the victim was summoning Bigfoot was convicted of murder.

Larry Doil Sanders was found guilty by an Oklahoma judge April 17, according to reports from The Oklahoman, The Ada News and KXII.

Jimmy Knighten was strangled to death in July 2022 while out fishing with Sanders, the outlets reported. After waiving a right to a jury trial, Sanders’ attorney reportedly claimed that his client had acted in self-defense.

The Oklahoman reported that Sanders claimed during testimony that while out noodling with Knighten, he had seen three sasquatch-looking figures by the river.

Witnesses for the prosecution testified that Sanders had said he believed Knighten was trying to kill him and send his body down the river as a sacrifice to Bigfoot, reported The Oklahoman.

The paper reported that a forensic psychiatrist testified that Sanders was suffering from methamphetamine-induced psychosis and believed he was defending himself.

Knighten died following a fight, during which Sanders put him in a chokehold, KXII reported.

The outlets report that Sanders faces up to life in prison without parole.

"Jimmy truly enjoyed anything and everything outdoors,” Knighten’s obituary reads. “He loved to fish, hunt game, ride four-wheelers, and most of all drink his beer around a big bonfire. Jimmy never met a stranger, and would give anyone the shirt off his back. Jimmy died sacrificing himself for the big man himself, Mr Bigfoot.”
