Apparently the press conference has been held, the video has been shown and one image has been released. See the news story and image here. More from the Denver Post.
For my money, it's as impressive as pictures of ghosts, which is to say that something like this would be easy to fake. I'd need to see the video, and I'd want some other corroborative, contemporary evidence: a second witness, physical evidence in the vicinity of the creature's presence, something of that nature.
For those who suggest that this would be enough to convince a courtroom, I say that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. It ain't enough. I'll be curious to see whether or not the video will be released as promised.
