I wonder why the perpetrators of this hoax were so confident that modern genenetic analysis would vindicate them.

I don't think they ever did think that. I think the whole thing was to get money from the Bigfoot "expert" from California by giving him exclusive access to the "corpse".

Perhaps, but they also distinctly claimed that DNA testing would vindicate their claims. It would appear that all they received in the end was world-wide ridicule and an unemployment check. I hope they still feel that it was worth it.

Looking at those chumps, I doubt they really understand much about DNA.
