Dog's Son Wags Tail for Pop

One of Dog Chapman's sons is coming to his defense, claiming his dad "is not this monster that people think."


TMZ TV had an exclusive interview with Christopher Hecht, who tried to defend his mulleted father by offering such gems as, "My dad's not a racist man, if he was, he would have no hair, he'd have swastikas on his body and he'd go around talking about Hitler."

The Dog has been enduring serious heat since an N-word tirade was leaked to the National Enquirer by another son, Tucker, last week. A remorseful Hecht also sold an anti-Dog story to the magazine -- for which he was paid $6,000. He is now apologizing to his Dog dad, claiming he agreed to talk to the tabloid only for the money. He even offers a thought of what happened between his brother and father. Judge for yourself!

46. Chaps... you are so right.
All these people trying to make excuses for this man's racist speech just make me sick.

Not only didnt want his son dating a black man, but he said he didnt want his daughter dating a ni99er either. How can anyone listen to that tape and say he had no racist intent. ?

and "hello" (#37), this goes for you too. you are sickening. I guess you wouldnt see racism unless it hit youin the face.. and even then you wouldnt see it if you didnt want to.

47. there is saying the N-word (which i believe is disgusting and ignorant), and then there's nasty racist talk and THAT is what this piece of trash did. i dont care if she WAS going after Dog's (an insult to canines the world over, btw) money, decent human beings with half an education just dont talk like that. yes, i know, he probably didnt even graduate from middle school. get over it white people, WE are the minority on this planet!

and, for a very rare time, i happen to agree with those crazy black leaders. blacks also need to quit it too, it sends the wrong message to people who dont think very deeply or for themselves!

48. kiko, it's called progress and education. i agree we've gone crazy with the PC stuff at times, but why should we settle for being ignorant, common, backwoods, stuck in the past...there are a-holes of every color and there are great people of every color. i dont understand how color of skin is even an issue, it makes as much sense as hating someone for their hair and eye color.

52. Have all of Dog's 12 kids had drug problems and been in prison, just like dear ol' dad? It sure seems that way.

This son is just making it worse, by saying that only those with swastikas talking about Hitler are racists. It just goes to show that Dog taught him to be a racist too, and to make incredibly stupid excuses for their racism.

Shame on all of them.

BLOCKBUSTER ENQUIRER INVESTIGATION
'DOG' IS A CRACKHEAD
'Bounty Hunter' spends up to $2,000 a month. Instead of walking the
straight and narrow, eyewitnesses claim Duane Chapman is breaking the
law.
"Ive seen him so messed up that he couldn't get to his office to film
his TV show".
Duane Dog Chapman is a crackhead, several eyewitness sources have
exclusively told The ENQUIRER!
The mullet-haired felon chaser has been smoking crack cocaine since
at least 1995, say the eyewitnesses-and spent up to $2,000 a month on
drugs, a blockbuster ENQUIRER investigation reveals.
And in one of the most blatant examples of celebrity hypocrisy ever,
Dog urges the lawbreakers he collars on his hit A&E show, "Dog the
Bounty Hunter" to go straight and kick drugs-while he gets higher
than a kite, according to those close to him.

"Duane Chapman is a phony! I know-because I'm his crack dealer!"
tatooed blonde Linda Heigle, who's been selling drugs to Chapman
since March 2005, to The ENQUIRER.

"I've sold crack to him, smoked crack with him more than 100 times
and seen him so messed up that he couldn't get to his office to film
his TV show!
http://media.livedigital.com/pictures/61/9b/619b680d523cafa8c5de835ccc854076.bmp
Chapman's former girlfriend DaLana Duncan also claims she smoked
crack with him in 1995 and again in 2005 in Denver. "Dog is a
cokehead. He snorts it, smokes it and eats it," DaLana told The
ENQUIRER.

"He WAY overdoses it-and he can't get enough. Once, I refused to give
him any more drugs because I thought he was going to die!"

Sympathy poured out for Chapman-whose top-rated show is in its third
season-after federal agents recently arrested him for extradition to
Mexico.

But the night before his Sept. 14 arrest, Linda says he bought $200
worth of crack from her-and he bought another $100 worth of crack
from her before authorities hauled him off to jail the next day!

The extradition case is now on hold-but in the months leading to his
arrest, Chapman blew thousands of dollars on a wild drug spree.

"Dog bought about $2,000 worth of crack a month from me for about a
year and a half," said Linda, who passed a polygraph test.

"He'd usually buy crack from me twice a week, for hundreds of dollars
at a time. He'd pay in cash so his wife Beth wouldn't find out.

"The first time we did business was in March 2005. Duane said he'd
pay me $2,000 for a girl and drugs. I sold him five grams of crack,
but he wasn't capable of having sex after we smoked it."

Shockingly, Chapman smoked crack inside his Oahu, Hawaii, home while
his children were sleeping, according to Linda.

"If the kids were getting up, he'd go into the bathroom," she said.
"When his wife was sleeping, we smoked outside in his car or the
garden."

Smoking crack also triggered severe paranoia in Chapman, says Linda,
who adds that he once spent two years in a Texas prison on murder
charges.

"Duane would think someone was filming him or recording him," said
Linda. "He would run around the house, checking the windows and doors
to make sure they were locked."

What's more, Chapman-who claims to be a born-again Christian-even got
high before taping his show, according to Linda!

"He'd smoke all night before filming his TV show. Then he'd be too
high to go do the show," said Linda, 41, who's moved from Hawaii to
California to escape her druggie past.

"Beth would be calling, cursing and saying,'I've got 20 producers
here waiting for Duane.' But Duane wouldn't leave. He wanted to stay
and keep smoking crack.

"I'd have to shove him into the shower, pour coffee down his throat
and then get him to take a Valium to bring him down."

Tawny Chapman, who was married to Dog in the early 90's, also says
she witnessed his crack use firsthand.

"Two years after we separated, I went to his house and the kids were
all home. When Dog opened his door, he was smoking a hit of crack,"
Tawny told The ENQUIRER. "The pipe was in his hand.

He said, 'Mind your own business!' and physically threw me down six
steps into the yard.

"Dog is always talking about rehabilitating people on TV, but I know
him for the phony he is. I can't stand his hypocrisy anymore."

Chapman even smoked crack with his son Christopher, according to
those close to the family. Now 37, Christopher is in a Colorado jail.

"Christopher told me he was smoking crack all the time with Dog in
1996. He blamed Dog for getting him hooked on crack and so do I,"
said Gloria Hecht, who raised Christopher from the time he was 5.

Chapman's ex-girlfriend DaLana Duncan also confirmed the "Bounty
Hunter" used drugs with Christopher. "One time I picked Dog up at a
hotel in Denverand he told me that he and Christopher had been
smoking crack for five days," said DaLana, who also passed a
polygraph test.

When contacted by The ENQUIRER about claims by Linda, DaLana, and
Gloria that he smoked crack, Chapman said, "They're all lying."

Asked if he ever smoked crack, he answered:"Why would I tell you
that?" Then he insisted that he's "never" smoked crack
cocaine-adding:"I have a lot of enemies right now because of this
thing in Mexico."

Despite his denials, Linda claims she only has Chapman's best
interest at heart.

"I'm revealing the truth about Duane Chapman to make him get help
before it's too late," she said. "I don't want him to die."

Shocking Claims: Bounty Hunter's ex-lover reveals WHAT A REAL "DOG"
HE IS
By: John Blosser

They dont call "Bounty Hunter" Duane Chapman "Dog" for nothing!
In a shocking tell-all interview, Delana Duncan-a woman who claims to
be Dog's ex-lover and drug buddy-says she can blow the lid off th A&E
star's carefully crafted born-again, anti-drug image.
Dalana's chargees come on the heels of Chapman's arrest in connection
with his capture of convicted rapist Andrew Luster in Mexico three
years ago. Chapman has been released from jail on $300,000 bail.
According to DeLana, Dog got legal custody of her when she was 16 by
falsely claiming he was her natural father. Seven years later she
says the married ex-con seduced her with cocaine. What's more, she
claims, the two shared a cocaine-fueled sex party in October
2005-just months before Dog married his longtime girlfriend Beth!
"Dog" Chapman stole my childhood and ruined my life," DaLana, now 36,
told THE ENQUIRER. "I needed a father-all he wanted was sex."
They met in 1987 when DaLana was 16 and Dog, then 34, was a bail
bondsman in Denver, Colo. She'd violated probation and he tracked her
down.
"He told me:"I'm your dad and I'll help you,' but it was a lie," said
DaLana, who passed polygraph test administered at the ENQUIRER'S
request. "He went to court with me and got custody, claiming he was
my natural father. I lived in an unheated camper in his front yard,
with Dog telling everyone I was his daughter," she claims. "One
night, we went to a drive-n movie. Dog was drunk. He grabbed my
breast and said: "I've always loved you. You know I'm not your real
father.' I was shocked and pushed him away. The next day, he said he
was drunk and didn't mean what he said."
DaLana says their affair started after Chapman brought her to Hawaii,
where she lived with his then-wife Tawny.
"One night, when I was about 24, Dog came over and had another woman
bring cocain," she asserts.
"He kept rubbing himself against me, saying: 'Come on, baby, let's
get it on." I kept saying: No!' But he wouldn't listen. I finally
said: 'If I have sex with you, will you leave me alone?" I was so
stoned I didn't know what I was doing."
"That night, we had sex for the first time. We became lovers,' she
claims.
"Dog took me to the Big Island with him and told his kids that I
wasn't his daughter-I was going to be their new stepmom!
"I stayed with Dog from late 1994 to August of 1995, and then I went
back to Denver."
Duane Chapman had DaLana's name tatooed on his arm.
DaLan Duncan has pictures of her with Duane Chapman in her apartment
and out by the pool.
In October 2005, she claims Dog visited her and they used drugs and
had sex.
"Here he is on TV praying for druggies to get clean and he's using.
He's such a hypocrite," she said.
When contacted by The ENQUIRER, Dog said:"I just feel very sorry for
this woman-someone I had a relationship with years ago, and whom I
have tried to help since then. I have been, and will always remain,
faithful to my wife, Beth.
"We will not dignify her false accusations with any further comment."
DaLana added: "Now that Duane's facing extradition to Mexico, people
think he's a big hero. I want everyone to realize what a liar he
really is."

60. The Chapman's are a joke, nothin' but gutter trash I tells ya! They are inbred & very clanish, hence calling a grown woman 'Baby Lisa', and another one of his gazillion kids, 'Gary Boy' (yeh he's young, but it still sounds lame).. The show should be pulled anyway, it gets old real quick -- was ok to watch a few episodes, cuz 'so bad it's good' -- but c'mon. They can always make mo' money putting that morbidly obese, low class freak Beth in a carney side show, LOL :p
