Background The famous Delphos, Kansas CE2 encounter occurred at approximately 7:00 in the evening on November 2, 1971. 16 year-old Ron Johnson was tending sheep when he saw a mushroom-shaped object approximately nine feet in diameter with multicolored lights covering its surface. The object, about 25 yards away, was hovering about two feet off the ground. The UFO sounded like “an old washing machine which vibrates.” When it took off it temporarily blinded Ronald with a bright light from its base. Ron went to get his family, and when they returned the entire family saw the object in the sky.…

Background The sample is from a young lady who has had a history of unusual and bizarre experiences involving strange entities. One strange event occurred overnight, August 31 – September 1, 2000, which resulted in a possible physical trace sample. The object is to identify the sample. Following is an excerpt from a letter accompanying the sample explaining the background behind the sample. “With no school on Friday, September, (she) was allowed to be outside the home Thursday night until her normal weekend curfew of 12:30 AM. (The parents) … retired shortly before 11 pm and had to (their) knowledge, an…
Background Unusual appearing materials dubbed “pseudo crystals” have been found in house hold dust of individuals claiming alien abductions. They are usually in micron sizes and therefore difficult to identify. A recently found material has a similar appearance under the microscope as previously encountered “pseudo crystals”. However, this time the “crystals” are in a larger cluster, and the amount is suitable for infrared analysis. It is the object of this analysis to identify this sample by infrared analysis. Conclusions The sample is identified as poly(ethylene terephthalate) i.e. PET. It has the following structure: -[-CH2CH2]x – [O(C=O)-Ø-(C=O)O]z- This material is a common…
Background A mutilated six year old Charolais bull was discovered 10-16-2000 near Derwent Alberta (south of St. Paul). He was facing east and lay on his right side. Excisions included the following: left ear; tongue; rectum, oval shape incision on the stomach (flesh untouched); scrotum with penis out between his hind legs; two teats. Several small willow branches had what appears as blood on them. The blood-like residue on the branches was submitted for identification. Of specific interest is whether the residue is pure hemoglobin, which has been identified in two other mutilation events. Conclusions A mutilated six year old…
Background The background on this mutilation event can be found in a letter dated October 6, 2000 by Louise Ashby who investigated the case. This is included in the appendix along with a site drawing. The object of this analysis is to identify dark substances observed on bovine feces found under a mutilated cow and nearby grass. Of particular interest is whether the dark substance is pure bovine hemoglobin, which has been found in two other animal mutilation events. Conclusions The residues found on the feces and grass are definitely blood derived. However, it does not appear to be whole…
