CASES FROM THE NETWORK

ABDUCTIONS?

Firstly, we take a look at a number of CE4 or potential CE4 events.

UFORA93053 Lifelong Melbourne VIC CE4? Level B S4/P4
A woman from Melbourne descnbed a lifelong set of unusual experiences. These included a near-death expe- rience at age three; nightmares involving “eyes” at win- dows; and out of bodyexperiences. She recently contacted her auntie after many years and found she recalled an abduction experience herself. The case has been referred to John Aachettl in Melbourne.

UFORA93054 Feb 1993 Adelaide SA CE4? Level B S4/P4
A three and balf year old girl told her mother that the “boys” had come to see her, arriving through the bedroom window. This girl’s sister was told she had to goto another room during the event The girl was taken into an object by the beings. Two types of beings were present. There was a “daddy” or “boss” figure there. From the craft the girl was taken to another place which she called “ heaven.“

The experience was uncovered in March 93 and matched a period of time some four weeks before when the girl was talking about monsters in her bedroom, became afraid to stay in the room, and had wet the bed.

UFORA93055 23 Feb 1993 Kwinana WA 0100hrs CE4? Level B S4/P4
A husband and wife, Sharon and Ian retired to bed between 2300-2330hrs. At 0100 they awoke to find their year old daughter Anita crying. Their four year old son was still asleep but the girl was standing in her cot very distressed.

When Sharon woke up she had a strong impression that she had been in a UFO. Ian, who had been sleeping in another room, woke up to findabright light shining inthe room, but was unable to identify the source. He felt very nervous to the point of panic and felt something weird was occurring outside. The couple felt nausea and could not sleep. When sleep did come they were awakened at 0200hrs by a sound like a train, even though the nearest track is 20km away. The noise, accompaniedby athrob- bing sound, seemed to come from the East. Their own dog and others in the area were going crazy. Two helicopters were heard outside for some 15 minutes and seem to be conducting a search.

The couple suffered headaches later on in the day and felt un easy and apprehensive. Sand was inexplicably found in the son’s bed. The husband’s watch, checked at 0100hrs and never known to be wrong (he is a prison warder), was found to be one hour fast.

UFORA93058 Jul/Aug 1991 Halls Creek WA 2000hrs CE4? Level B S4/P4
Dean was travelling on his motor bike when he saw an unusual object, as did the occupants of two cars who had stopped to watch it. At this point the engine of his bike cut out. He dismounted to look for a fault. He then remembers kick starting the bike and continuing on his way. How- ever, when he arrived at his destination which had only been 10 minutes from his starting point, he was amazed to find it was 2220hrs! Later that night he found a fresh scar on the back of his left ankle.

OTHER REPORTS

UFORA93056 22 Mar 1993 Armadale WA 2315hrs CE1 Level B S4/P4
Jenny was driving along when ahead she noticed a very bright light like a white flare. It was falling towards the ground. As she got closer to it she noted it was spherical, with a sma11er sphere on either side.

There were two other motorists ahead who did not appear to see the object. As Jenny drewyet closer to the lights they moved to the right of her vehicle over waste ground. The car radio started to crackle and went dead, and the car’s lights dimmed. She pulled the car over to the side of the road for a better look and then saw there were in fact three lights in a row, two on either side of the central one, aligned horizontally. As she drove off the car’s radio returned to normal. The object simply disappeared. Du- ration of the event was estimated as three minutes.

UFORA93064 6 May 1993 Wandi WA 0430-0550hrs Low Level B S3/P4
While delivering papers, John noticed in the East a bright, white light. Ten minutes later he noticed the same light was at 70 degrees, and appeared to be pacing his vehicle. As he travelled to Watleup the light got closer and larger to about the size of a quarter Moon, still pacing him. At about 0500hrs he saw that the object was now stationaly. It seemed to fade away, then re-appear. On reaching home he called his wife to look. She agreed there was an odd light in the East. However, this was probably Venus.

An ambulance driver, named Reg, noted a very bright light to the East at about 3040 degrees up. When he reached the depot he lined it up with a tree to check its movement. There appeared to be a slight movement to the north. After watching it for some 15 minutes it faded to a small dot and disappeared. Most probably Venus.

He continued on in his car when he realised the object was pacing his vehicle. He stopped the car and got out It was at 30 degrees to the East. The light faded and Ivan was aware of a huge black shroud in a pear drop shape on its side with a long pillar like structure hanging below, terminating with an inverted ‘V’. He got back in his car and moved on. On reaching home his wife also saw the light Ivan estimated by this time it was only some 400m away and 200m above the ground, glowing a pure white. It simply disappeared. Apart from the latter half of the story it could have been Venus.

RESEARCH NOTES

CATTLE MUTILATIONS AND UFOS

The current, continuing interest in cate or animal mutilations started back in September 1967 in the United States. A horse named Lady(incor- rectly called Snippy in most accounts) was found dead with unusuai injuries. From the neck up, the flesh had been stripped off. The neck cut was described as extremely smooth, and Harry King, the brother of the horse’s owner stated: What neck was cut so smooth it couldn’t have been done even with a sharp hunting knife.” (“An Alien Harvest” p2.)

There was a lack of blood and the horse’s heart, lungs and thyroids were missing. UFOs had been sighted in the area during the weeks before the animal’s death and Nellie Lewis, the horse’s owner became convinced that UFOs were involved In the dedth. Thus started the ongoing animal, or more specificully, cate mutilation saga.

Over subsequent years, further-mutilated animuls were found and again there were reported observations of Ufos in those areas at those times.

By 1974, regular news media reports commented on these mutilations and in addition, in exploring potential explanations, also included reported observations of mystery helicopters. Explanations for the mutilations included witchcraft cults, rustlers, marijuana smuggiers, extraterrestrials, wild animals and natural causes.
In 1993 reports of mutilstlons continue today, with a recent edition of the US based magazine NUFO Encounters~ reporting on an outburst in North-Eastern Alabama. Here 28 cows were said to have been mutilated in early 19930

Have we any reports linking UFO entities with the mystery? Yes, but only a few. Two I am aware of are:-

1. A Missouri couple watched, in 1983,two small beings dressed in tight fitting silver suits. These entities reportedly floated a paralysed black cow Into a UFO. The entities were described as having large, white coloured heads. Interestingly, the couple also stated that a tall, greenskinned “lizard man” with vertical slit eyes, was standing nearby.

2. A Waco, Texas, rancher, related that in 1980 he had watched two 120cm tall creatures, carry a calf between them. They reportedly had large, slanted, black eyes. The rancher admitted to having been scared and run away. However, upon returning to the scene a few days later he found the mutilated body of the calf.

Well, if entities have been reported in association with mutilations, have any abductees reported animal mutilations? The answer,yet again is yes. These two were reported In “An Alien Harvest” by US researcher Linda Moulton-Howe:

1. A May 1973 episode involved a wornan, Judy Doraty, whose memories of the event were recovered by Dr Leo Sprinkle utilising regression hypnosis in 1980. During part of the regression Doraty recalled observing a small calf being cut up with an instrument.

2. May 1980 saw another regression by Leo Sprinkle. Myrna Hansen and her son were abducted in a New Mexico location. The woman was driving a car when a bright light made her stop the vehicle and get out. Voices spoke to her and she was carried off together with a cow. The cow was mutilated in front of her. Aliens plunged an instrument into the chest of the animal and worked on the sex organs while the cow was still alive.

NEW TREATMENT FOR ABDUCTEES

US psychiatrist Rima Laibow, one of the first psychiatrists to take an active and continuing Interest in abductees, approached the subject by looking at the similarity of the after effects of an abduction and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Laibow noted that PTSD was only known to occur following physical trauma, and was not know to derive from imaginative events. Hence, she suggested, abductions must derive from a physical event.

PTSD is recognised by mainstream health professionals, and a number of treatments are available to deal with it.

However, a revolutionary new method of treating PTSD, and hence possibly of value to abduction researchers has emerged in recent times.

Francine Shapiro, Ph.D., used saccadic eye movements for treating PTSD and had what can only be called outstanding results.

I have not heard of any abduction researcher yet using this tool, but full details may be obtained from: Dr Shapiro, 555 Middlefield Road, Palo Alto. California. 94301. USA.
