Isigebenga saseMontanaukU-Eli osandul 'ukuzalwa ukuze aqwalasele I-Monster yaseMontauk yaqala ukubusa ngo-Julayi ka-2008, xa isidalwa esoyikekayo sahlamba kunxweme lweDitch Plains, elunxwemeni oluthandwayo lwaselwandle kwi-peninsula yaseMontanauk.
Amabhinqa amathathu aselula athi aqala alibona irhamncwa ngomsila weLong Island yaseNew York, aza afota ifoto yomzimba otyumkileyo, otyumkileyo obonakala ngathi utshisiwe lilanga. Okanye mhlawumbi yayingumlilo. Ifoto iya kuthi kungekudala inike umdla kwaye ivukele izigidi ezibeke iliso lazo elibi kuyo, emva Gawker upapashe umfanekiso kwi iposti yebhlog engama-87 Oko kusetwe loo ntanethi.
Ngaba yayingu-pitbull ngokungenanceba woyiswa kumlo ongekho mthethweni wezinja? Isidumbu esisindileyo esivela kwiziko eliyimfihlakalo lophando lwezifo zezilwanyana kwiPlum Island ekufuphi? Ngaba irarcoon iphangiwe uboya bayo emva kokufa kolwandle? Ufudo olungenayo iqokobhe lalo? Kodwa ufudo awanamazinyo, kwaye izinja azinayo imilomo yedayinaso. Bonke abantu abanokuvumelana ngako kukuba babengazange babone nantoni na enje ngeMontauk Monster ngaphambili.
Njengoninzi lwethu, ndiqale ukubona ifoto ngendlela ye Gawker ibali. Andikhumbuli ndithandabuza umzuzwana ukuba isidalwa esikwifoto sikhona; nokuba iyintoni na, ibiyinyani. Ngelo xesha, yonke into endandikhathalele ukuyazi Yintoni le tarnation yile nto ? Kwaye emva koko, kamva: Iphi ?
Ke ngoku, ibali leMonster Monster liyinto emtyibilizi; ukuzama ukuyiqonda kufana nokuzama ukubamba indebe yesanti kwinqindi lakho. Ngokolwazi lwethu, ifoto engathandekiyo yathathwa nge-12 kaJulayi ka-2008. Yabhalwa kuJenna Hewitt, owayezimanye nabahlobo bakhe uRachel Goldberg noCourtney Fruin xa kwathiwa bayakhubeka kwisidumbu ngexesha lokonwaba elwandle . Kuya kuba ziiveki ezimbini ngaphambi kokuba irhamncwa lifike kwi-radar yeendaba zeNew York City; i Gawker Ipapasho lapapashwa ngoJulayi 29. Ngelo xesha lifutshane lokuthula okungathethekiyo, amabali emingcwabo yaseViking, ukuphanga amangcwaba, kunye nokutyholwa kwe-Photoshop hijinks kwahlebeza phakathi kwezithunzi zeendunduma zaseMontauk, kude nembonakalo yelitha. Bambalwa kuthi abanokuyazi ngokuqinisekileyo into eyenzekileyo. Kodwa siyayazi le nto: Ngexesha lokukhala kwemiqondiso yomzekeliso, umntu othile wayenalo ixesha lokufihla umzimba.
Eyona nto sinokuyixela, eli libali lesigebenga saseMontanauk.

Umgca kwi Gawker Iposti yeyomnye uRichard Lawson, ngoku into evanithi ngokuthambile Umgxeki ophambili wefilimu, kodwa ke umbhali wentwentysomething owayefudukile Gawker Iqela lentengiso lentengiso kwiinyanga nje ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo. I-arhente ye-PR yathumela ifoto ye-Montauk Monster ku-Anna Holmes UIzebhele , Gawker ’ indawo yodade, kwaye yena, Kuthiwa ikholelwa ukuba yayiluhlobo oluthile lomkhankaso wentengiso wentsholongwane , wayithumela kuLarson.
Ingemizuzu nje yokuthumela, ibali laphuma. Ukugqwetha okungathandekiyo: U-Lawson wothuka. Ndacinga ukuba yinto efileyo ebonakala ingaqhelekanga.
Ibali elimnandi lathathwa zivenkile zesizwe ezinjengeFox News, i Iposi likaHuffington, kunye ne-NBC. Iingcali ezilinganise kwisazisi saseMontauk Monster ( umntu okholelwa ukuba yenziwe nge-latex) bonke babesebenza kwifoto edume kakubi, ethandabuzekayo-nabani na owayefuna ukubona irhamncwa lisenyameni wayengenathamsanqa. Ngexesha lokudalwa kwesidalwa saziwa ngokuba yiMontauk Monster, yayisele ihambile.
Abantu balapha abathetha namajelo eendaba kwiiveki ezilandela ukufunyanwa babeneenkcazo ezingacacanga nezingafaniyo zokuba isidumbu sanyamalala phi kwaye phi, kodwa babelana ngomyalezo omanyeneyo: Sukuzikhathaza ngokujonga-awuyi kuwufumana. Ekuqaleni kuka-Agasti 2008, kwaxelwa umntu ongaziwayo Umhla weendaba ukuba wayevile ngabantu ababebone isigebenga emva kokuba isuswe eDitch Plains yaya kwindawo engaziwayo.
Ngoku ibolile kwaye lukakayi kunye namathambo, utshilo ingqina, eqaphela ukuba ubonile ifoto yesidalwa kwiifowuni zabantu abathile, kwaye ayinkulu kunekati. Akakhange achaze ukuba ukwazile njani ukufumanisa ubungakanani bezilwanyana kwezi foto, kwaye waphepha isicelo sentatheli ukuze abone ukuba amathambo angcwatyelwe phi. UJenna Hewitt uxelele Umhla weendaba ukuba isidumbu sasikhona ukubola ehlathini emva kwendlu yomfana wenqabile ukufumanisa.
U-Loren Coleman, igqala le-cryptozoologist elizinze ePortland, eMaine, wayesazi ngeMontauk Monster ngaphambi kokuba uninzi lwethu lwenze njalo. wayithiya igama. 
UColeman ukwanguMlawuli weMyuziyam yaMazwe ngaMazwe ye-Cryptozoology ePortland, eMaine.U-Loren coleman
Coleman uxelele Umjongi ukuba waqala ukufumana imiyalezo evela kubahlobo kunye noogxa bakhe malunga Umzimba onesidumbu emva kokwenza iindaba zasekuhlaleni ngoJulayi 23, 2008, kodwa ngaphambili Gawker wayichola. Kwaye wayethandabuza, kodwa hayi ngesizathu sokuba abanye kuthi babekho. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, i-cryptozoology yinyani yesayensi ethatha intsomi njengeBigfoot kunye nechupacabras kakhulu-kwaye uColeman uphezulu kwicandelo lakhe. I-fan echaze ngokwakho i-alliteration, wayila igama elithi Dover Demon emva kwi-1977, emva kweMassachusetts Umfundi wesikolo wafunga kwisitaki seebhayibhile ukuba wabona isidalwa esingumtyholi esinamehlo aqaqambileyo kunye neminwe efana ne-tendril ehleli eludongeni lwamatye kwindawo ekude yaseBoston. Kwintsimi yakhe, uColeman unabantu abaninzi abathandayo.
Nge-12 kaJulayi ngumhla wokuzalwa kwam, kwaye abantu abaninzi kwihlabathi liphela babhiyozela usuku lwam lokuzalwa kwaye bandithumelele zonke iintlobo zemibuliso, utshilo uColeman. Ndiye ndazibuza ukuba ingaba bazama ukundikhohlisa na. Ndandikrokra kakhulu ekuqaleni.
UColeman uthe wazama ukwenza amalungiselelo okuzibonela isigebenga. Kwakungenakwenzeka ukuba ndifike eNew York, watsho. Ndivulekile ukuba ndijonge, kodwa akukho mntu uya kuyivelisa.
Uzamile ukuqhakamshelana naba bafazi bathatha ifoto, kodwa njengesidumbu, kubonakala ngathi bayanyamalala. Aba bantu bazibeka ngodonga lwezitena.
Ndidibene nodonga kwezi veki zimbalwa zidlulileyo, ngelixa ndizama ukumba iimpendulo. Iimpendulo bezinzima kakhulu ukuza kunokuba bendinjalo ekuqaleni, mhlawumbi ngokungakhathali, ndikholelwa ukuba ziya kuba njalo. Ndifikelele kubadlali abaphambili endikwaziyo ukubachonga, kumzamo wokufumanisa ukuba kwenzeka ntoni kwirhamncwa emva kokuba lithathiwe endaweni yalo yokuphumla yethutyana elunxwemeni. Ngaphandle kokuba uninzi lwabantu abafanayo benomdla wokuthetha ngalo macala onke ngo-'08, imibuzo yam ibingahoywanga.
U-Eric Olsen, umthengisi kunye nomthengisi wearhente yokuthengisa izindlu nomhlaba oxelele Inkwenkwezi yeMpuma yeHampton ukuba wasusa isidumbu kwaye washiya ukubola kwipropathi yomhlobo wakhe ukuze akwazi ukugcina amathambo kwaye awunike umfoti wefashoni kwiprojekthi yobugcisa kaDamien Hirst-y, akawuphendulanga umyalezo endiwuthumele kuFacebook, ekuphela kwendawo endinokumfumana kuyo. Nokuba umfoti wefashoni okanye umnini wepropathi apho u-Olsen ashiye khona isigebenga-phambi kokuba ibiwe, utshilo-uphendule kwisicelo sodliwanondlebe. Ndabhalela ngokufutshane kunye nendoda eyayiqhuba ibhlog malunga neMontauk Monster iminyaka eliqela, eyathi ekugqibeleni yathi ukuthetha namajelo eendaba ngayo ayiziva ilungelelane kakhulu kum. Wenqabile ukuphendula imibuzo emibini ethe ngqo ecela ukungqina ukuba usibonile isigebenga uqobo, ibango alwenzileyo kwibhlog yakhe.
Ndifumene impendulo nge-imeyile evela kuRachel Goldberg, kodwa impendulo yakhe ibingaphantsi komdlandla. UGoldberg, obonakala ehlala eHawaii ngoku, wathi ukuthetha ngeMontauk Monster kuyo yonke le minyaka kwakungeyiyo eyona nto iphambili kuye nakubahlobo bakhe. Utyikitye umyalezo wakhe otyholayo no-Aloha, okuthetha ukuba molo, kwaye usale kakuhle.

Ihlobo lowama-2008 yayiyindawo yenkcubeko yaseMontanauk: Kwaphawula ukuvulwa kweSurf Lodge, ibar engamanzi engahambelaniyo nolwandle eyayitsalela kuluntu olwalunolala lolwandle isixeko esiqhele ukubanga indawo enomtsalane njengeyaso emva kokuyifumana. , nokuba ngubani owayekhona ngaphambili.

Kwiminyaka elandelayo, iMontanauk kunye neMpuma yeHampton (esele iphangiwe ziigundane zedolophu) yayiza kufakwa kwinkcubeko ethandwayo. Kuqala ngomdlalo weqonga we-TV Revenge, owawusetelwe e-East Hampton kwaye wavela ngo-2011, kwaye kamva nongcelele lwemfihlakalo ye-Showtime i-Affair, eyabeka ukugqwesa eMontanauk, mhlawumbi kwacaphukisa abahlali ababenokukhetha ukugcina amalwandle-kunye neemfihlo zabo-kubo.
I-Affair ibonakalise abahlali baseMontanauk unyaka wonke njengobubi kwaye benesithunzi. Kukho ukuthutyeleziswa kwamayeza amancinci, ukurhweba ngabantu ngokuthengisa izinto ezigwenxa, ukubulala nokubaleka, abakwizikolo zamabanga aphakamileyo abagqibela ngokulula njengonogada wentolongo, kunye nokungathembeki okungaphezulu kwesinye.
Ewe, ngumboniso kamabonwakude obhaliweyo. Okwangoku, umntu endandiqhelene naye endathetha naye kumanqanaba okuqala okuphanda eli bali wandixelela kwinto evakala njengesilumkiso sokuba iMontanauk yindawo enezinto ezininzi eziyimfihlo. Ngaba ibali eliyinyani leMontauk Monster yenye yazo? Okanye ngaba i-monster yayiloluhlobo lwesilumkiso esingumqondiso, ilumkisa iJitney-come-latelies ukuba ihlale kude? Kwaye ngaba umntu othile wayibeka apho kanye ngenjongo, ukuphazamisa abahlaseli?
Kwiiveki nje ezimbalwa emva kokuba ndibeke iso kwindalo, ndiza kuba phakathi kweekholoni. Kwimemori yam, uMontanauk wayesathetha ngerhamncwa elingaqondakaliyo. Ndicinga ukuba ndiyakhumbula ndithetha ngayo nomqhubi we-shuttle ovela eMontanauk Manor, owasiqhubela elunxwemeni kude kufuphi nalapho umzimba obolileyo wahlamba khona. Ndiyakhumbula ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba i-surf yomelele kangangokuba yayiza kukujula ujonge ebusweni emanzini anzulu amaqatha, utsala umzimba wakho kunxweme olunamatye njengoko wawuzabalaza ukuya kwiinyawo zakho. Ngendafunga ukuba ndiyakhumbula ukuba iMonta yaseMontauk yayingumxholo du jour xa ndandindwendwele izihlobo ezaziqeshe indlu, ezazivakalelwa ngathi ziimayile neekhilomitha ukusuka elunxwemeni. Ndacinga ukuba ndivile ukuba abanini bepropathi bathi ngandlela thile isidumbu, ukuba singaya naphi na phantsi kweenyawo.
Kodwa akukho mntu ndathetha naye owayekhona ngelo xesha uyikhumbula naphina kufutshane ngendlela efanayo nam.Ukuba kukho nantoni na ehambelana nebali elijijekileyo leMonster Monster, kukuba iinkumbulo zabantu azibonakali ngathi ziyahambelana. Ngaba lowo ngumsebenzi wokuhamba kwexesha kuphela? Okanye ngaba wonke umntu uyafihla… yonke into? Kwaye ngubani, okanye yintoni, enokubangela ukuba bathule?
Ndiyayithanda into yokuba [isigebenga] sibe luhlobo lomqondiso wento eza kwenzeka eMontauk, utshilo uLawson.
Uye wathi ibali phantse alenzekanga. Gawker ’Umsunguli kwayeUmphathi omkhulu u-Nick Denton ebengekho eholideyini xa ifoto ifike kwi-inbox kaLawson, kwaye intatheli ithi uyakholelwa ukuba ibali ngelingazange lipapashwe ukuba uDenton ebekhona ukuyibulala.
Oko bekusoloko ndikrokrela, kuba bekubonakala ngathi kuyathandeka, utshilo uLawson. Yayingenawo lo mphetho kuyo.
I-Edge okanye hayi, enye intatheli encinci yavuya kakhulu ukufumana udliwanondlebe olunqwenelekayo nabahlobo abathathu ababethabathe ifoto yerhamncwa.
Ngelo xesha, uNick Leighton wayesebenzela iPlum TV, Isikhululo sentambo esekwe kwiHamptons esingasekhoyo. Wenza udliwanondlebe noGoldberg, uHewitt noFruin kwipatiyo yeSurf Lodge ngoJulayi 31, kwiintsuku ezimbini emva Gawker ibali hit.
Kwakungathi yiFrost / Nixon, utshilo uLeighton.
Wabelana ngevidiyo yodliwanondlebe kunye Umjongi . Amantombazana aneecocktails phambi kwabo, amehlo abo azimele ngasemva kwezibuko zelanga ezimnyama. Bangaphantsi koopopayi njengoko bephendula imibuzo malunga nokukhubeka kwiMonuk Monster, kunye nokubaleka ngokungagungqiyo malunga nento eyenzekileyo emzimbeni emva kwayo ngokumangalisayo yaphela.
Bathi itywiniwe ngohlobo lwebhokisi, utshilo uLeighton. Ngokuqinisekileyo ndandikrokra kancinci ngexesha lodliwanondlebe.
Kodwa kwividiyo, EGoldberginekhamera yedijithali abayisebenzisileyo ukuthatha ifoto edumileyo, kwaye ibonisa iLeighton leyo kunye nomfanekiso wesibini, ovela kwelinye icala.
Ibonakala intle kakhulu, kodwa njengoko uLeighton watshoyo, ayisiyiyo into yokuba awukwazi ukufaka ifoto kwakhona kwikhamera.
Ukuba bendinguNick namhlanje bendizakubuza loo mbuzo. U-2008 uNick, ndiyekile nje, watsho. Sonke sasidlala indima yethu kumdlalo.
Inxalenye yalo mdlalo yayiyithiyori yelenqe, ekhuthazwa ngobuqhophololo kudliwanondlebe, ukuba iMontauk Monster yayililinge lokubaleka kwisiQithi sasePlum esikufuphi, indawo yophando yezilwanyana eyimfihlo ngumba wamahemuhemu amabi . Kodwa abukho ubungqina bokuba iPlum Island inento yokwenza nesi Monster saseMontauk.
U-Leighton uthe watyelela eli ziko malunga neminyaka emibini kamva, engadibani nesigebenga, emva kokuthatha isigqibo sokufota isiqendu somdlalo awayewenza ngelo xesha ePlum Island. Kwakudingeka ahambe kwinkqubo yokuvunyelwa nguRhulumente ukuzisa abasebenzi kwiziko leZilwanyana, nangona banikezwa kuphela ukufikelela kwilebhu kunye nezinga eliphantsi kakhulu lokhuseleko. Ilungu labasebenzi abakhulelweyo likhethe ukuphuma kolu hambo, ngokwemiyalelo kagqirha. U-Leighton uthe bayakwazi ukuzisa ukutya neziselo kwesi siqithi, kodwa akukho nto inokushiya kubo-nokuba ibhotile yamanzi engavulwanga.
Uqinisekile ukuba isigebenga saseMontanauk asiveli ePlum Island.
Ukhuseleko lunjalo kangangokuba ndiziva ndikhululekile ukuyiphelisa le ithiyori, utshilo uLeighton.Kubonakala kungenakwenzeka ukuba baya kuvumela izidumbu zabo ukuba zibaleke.
U-Leighton ukwathe wayevile ukuba iMonuk Monster yatshiswa elwandle kumngcwabo weViking. Oku kunokuba kubhekisa kwelinye ibali eliyimvelaphi elavela phantse unyaka emva kokuba ibali liqala ukwaphuka.
Ngokwengxelo kaJuni ka-2009 kwi Gawker, UDrew Grant (owayesakuba ngumhleli kwi Umjongi) , Ubhale iposti esele icinyiwe kwi-blog engasebenziyo ngoku i-ASSME (Umbutho weeShitcanned Media Elites) malunga nokudibana nomhlobo wakudala owathi wenze i-monster.
Umhlobo ongaxelwanga ngagama uxelele uGrant ukuba yena kunye nabanye abantu bakhubekile kwi-raccoon efileyo kwimpelaveki ngaphambi kweholide kaJulayi 4, xa wayeqhuba eShelter Island ngemisebenzi ebandakanya ukhuphiswano lokunyamezela i-waterboarding kunye ne-dresspins-on-your-genital challenge .
Gawker inikezele ngengxoxo eneenkcukacha malunga nokuchaneka kwesidumbu esihamba ukusuka eShelter Island ukuya apho ihlambe khona eDitch Plains (ayinakwenzeka kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo ayinakwenzeka), yapapasha umfanekiso obonakala ubonakalisa isidumbu seraccoon kwityhubhu enokutsha, eyayilinganiswe ivatala. Enye ifoto ibonise isitya sexeshana esidadayo emanzini, sidliwe ngumlilo.
Ngokuhambelana nazo zonke iindlela ezimdaka ezikhokelela kwaye zikude nesigebenga saseMontanauk, ukukhumbula kukaGrant kwiminyaka esithoba kamva kuyahluka kwiakhawunti epapashwe kwi Gawker (ithathwe kwisikhundla sikaGrant kwi-ASSME engasasebenziyo kwi-intanethi.) Umhlobo wakudala otyholwa ngokungcwatyelwa elwandle wayengumphathi kwibhar apho uGrant wayesebenza khona ehlotyeni. Wayengalikhumbuli igama lakhe, watsho, kodwa wakhumbula ukuba wamthembisa ukuba angaze alisebenzise-woyika ukuba uzakufumana ingxaki nabaphembeleli bezilwanyana. UGrant uthe wambona ebhar kuphela izihlandlo ezimbalwa emva koko, kwaye wayengaqinisekanga ukuba usekelwe eLong Island okanye esixekweni.
UGrant uchaza ibali le-Monsters yaseMontanauk njenge-shady: Kuya kuba yinto engummangaliso ngonaphakade, watsho. Okwangoku, ufumanise ukuba ibali lomngcwabo likaViking lithembekile.
Ingcinga yam yayi: Yile nto yenzekileyo.
I-cryptozoologist iyavuma ukuba ibali linokuthenjwa.U-Loren Coleman uqinisekile ukuba i-Montauk Monster yayiyi-raccoon ebolayo.
Into ekufuneka uyenzile yayikukuyijonga kwaye wazi kancinci malunga ne-zoology, endiyenzayo, kwaye uyabona ukuba yayilusuku lokuwohloka komhla wesibini nokubola komzimba [we-raccoon], utshilo uColeman.
Uqhubeke wachaza ngokweenkcukacha ezithe vetshe inkqubo ayibiza ngokuba kukutsiba kolusu okungenzeka kumzimba ophoswa ngapha nangapha kumaza, kwaye uxela ukuba kutheni ubume bezilwanyana babonakala bugwenxa- nangona yayinomlomo. Ngamafutshane, inkqubo yokubola eqhelekileyo edityaniswa nentshukumo emanzini amdaka inokubangela ukutyibilika phakathi kolusu lomphezulu kunye namanqatha angaphantsi.
Kuyanyanyisa, utshilo uColeman.
Ngelixa i-cryptozoologist yayigxotha nayiphi na inkcazo emnandi ngakumbi yeMonta yaseMontauk, ikholelwa ukuba ibali liqale indlela yokubona i-cryptid. Ngokukhawuleza emva koko, caphula i-Montauk Monsters waqala ukubonisa kwihlabathi liphela, utshilo uColeman.
Ukuzibeka embindini webali kuhlawulwe: UColeman uthe abathengisi besiselo samandla eVenom Energy bamcela ukuba abonelele ngesicatshulwa abasisebenzisileyo kwiphulo lokukhuthaza isiselo esinesihloko iMontauk Monster.
Ndaguquka kwaye babendihlawule i-1, 000 yeedola, utshilo uColeman. Ndive ngathi ndiyabakhohlisa okanye enye into.
Iingxelo zeendaba zalapha ehlotyeni ka-2008 zacebisa ukuba abanye abagxeki baziva ngathi abafazi ababethathe lo mfanekiso bazama ukuzenzela imali kubo. Umhla weendaba wabuza umbuzo ku Uyise kaJenna Hewitt, ochithe amarhe okuba intombi yakhe kunye nabahlobo bayo bajonge ukwenza inzuzo. Akukho nto ibonisa ukuba abafazi bafumana nantoni na engaphezulu kwecocktails eSurf Lodge ngokufumanisa kwabo iMontauk Monster.
Okwangoku, EGoldberguxelele i Umjongi Uyakucinga kuphela ngokunika udliwanondlebe ngentlawulo. Khange aphendule kumbuzo olandelayo wokucela ukubiza amagama akhe.
Ukuba ukubandakanyeka kwabafazi abancinci kwisibali seMontauk Monster ngenene akunatyala, njengoko uColeman akholelwa; ukuba babambekile kwisiphepho semithombo yeendaba sogonyamelo ngaphandle kwesiphoso okanye injongo yabo, kulula ukuqonda ukuba kutheni benokuba nengqumbo. Mhlawumbi isigebenga saseMontanauk sesinye nje isiqwenga sendawo apho abajikelezi-nyaka bazama ukusilela ukuzigcina.
Ukujonga emva kwelo hlobo kufana nokujonga kwincam esempuma yeLong Island ngokusebenzisa isihluzi se-Instagram se-sepia; umbono kuphela weMontauk endinokuwufikelela kule minyaka yokuba yindawo yokudlalela ye-lobster ye-One Percenters. Kunzima ukucinga ukuba ukufunyanwa kwesigebenga saseMontanauk ngekunokudlala njani ukuba bekusenzeka kwiminyaka elishumi kamva.
U-Lawson wathi wayengazange aye eMontanauk ngaphambi kwakhe Gawker Iposi yahamba yintsholongwane. Kodwa ibali le-Montauk Monster lisamkhathaza. U-Lawson uthe ukhethe ukuphuma kwimodeli yembuyekezo esekwe kwizithuthi Gawker wanikela ngelo xesha; kwaye ukuba wayehlawulwe ngekhomishini ngewayenze malunga ne-9,000 yeedola kweso sithuba sinye kuphela.
Ndicinga ukuba ndichithe lonke ihlobo ndicinga ngale mali, utshilo uLawson.
Xa ebuzwa ukuba kutheni ecinga ukuba isangqa sangaphakathi seMontauk sihlangene kule minyaka idlulileyo, uLawson wayenengqondo ezimbini.
Mhlawumbi kukho ukuqaqadeka abangafuni kudityaniswa nako, utshilo. Okanye, bayinxalenye yelenqe kwaye sisilo esikhulu.
