Police UFO Secrecy

Copyright (C) 2009, Richard A. Jones.

Why is there secrecy surrounding UFOs? What are the consequences for the blabbing officer? What has led to the need for an unofficial UFO disclosure process?

A broad spectrum of consequences lays in store for anyone privileged to have any information about UFOs. At the lower end of the spectrum lays the witness of an unidentified aerial object. Least of concern is a reaction of disinterest from peers. Following that is the reaction of ridicule, a powerful and influential force.

Ridicule is a long established form of control over those around us. Existing on every level of society, and at every stage of history, ridicule is a powerful tool used to bend those around us to our perspective. Intelligence forces have long known the effectiveness of ridicule, and it is often used as an official form of mind control. For those on the force, the persistent pressure of ridicule from peers can lead to serious ill health. Nobody wants to be made fun of, on a daily basis, and this basic fact is enough to silence the witness. As one example, consider the officers involved in the famous 1996 Portage County sightings. These dramatic sightings inspired the UFO-police chase in Steven Spielberg's movie "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind," yet instead of being revered, these officers suffered severely.

The incident ruined the career and marriage of officer Dale Spaur, who was apparently traumatised by the incident and the subject of relentless ridicule. Immediately after the event, he seemed to change. His wife "never saw him more frightened before." He inexplicably became violent and she filed assault-and-battery charges, then filed for divorce. Six months later, he had lost forty pounds, turned in his badge, and was working as a painter while living in a small motel room. Officer Huston also resigned from the force within a few months and became a bus driver in Seattle. He had been a seven-year veteran. "Sure, I quit because of that thing," he said. "People laughed at me. And there was pressure. You couldn't put your finger on it, but the pressure was there. The city officials didn't like police officers chasing flying saucers." Wilbur Neff wasn't a full-time officer, but he was also affected. His wife said, "I hope I never see him like he was after the chase. He was real white, almost in a state of shock."

This is a precarious position for a police officer, who not only has to make every effort to identify a potential threat to safety, but also must react in order to protect those around us. The pressure to be quiet on such matters is a double-edged sword. Imagine, hypothetically, an officer who sights a distress flare, or an aircraft in distress. He is unable to accurately identify the nature of the object, and therefore it is determined to be a UFO. Fearing ridicule, he ignores the phenomenon. Under later questioning, his defence, "UFOs do not exist and if they did, the police have no interest in them." Where does this lead the officer who has assumed the official stance on UFOs?

In broadening the scope of consequences, an officer coming forward publicly, or even officially by making an official incident report, must suffer the consequences of official pressure. The officer may have jeopardised his credibility as an officer, or further, placed undue public pressure on the department as a whole. The force does not want or need undue public attention, especially concerning matters out of their control, and especially concerning things that officially do not exist. The consequences? Official punishment - demotion, relocation, dismissal, and so on. Cases on record demonstrate the official consequences of an officer UFO witness publicly and officially coming forward. Consider the case of West Yorkshire Officer PC Alan Godfrey.

PC Alan Godfrey filled official forms based on his UFO encounters which were sent to the Ministry of Defence. A letter from Ministry of Defence, in response to an enquiry by Alan, stated no such records existed. Not long after, Alan was suddenly told he was to be transferred to Wakefield, but he didn’t want to go. After returning from holiday he was then transferred to Halifax, in complete disregard to his settled life with his wife and three children. Upon arriving at Halifax, Alan was told he wasn’t to mix with the public. Later he was ordered to appear at a hospital for an exam. Upon arrival at the hospital he was surprised to find that it was a psychiatric hospital. Alan attended the exam with a colleague, where he was told by the doctor, “We understand that you have hallucinations and you’ve seen little green men and flying saucers.” Fortunately, Alan’s colleague came to his defence, saying, “I’ve seen one and so have a lot of Alan’s colleagues,” naming some of the officers, as the doctors sat with their jaws open. Later Alan returned to his old police station, and was told that he had been barred from the station, “because things have been going missing.” The following day, Alan enquired about the order, of his division head, who claimed to have no knowledge of the official order. Alan threatened legal action. Later, Alan went to his locker and found the lock broken and the on the floor. Inside the locker were suspected contraband drugs. Alan disposed of the drugs down the toilet and informed his sergeant. The next day at work, Alan was called aside to be questioned by internal affairs, who then proceeded to search Alan’s locker. The investigators were apparently “absolutely livid” to find nothing unusual[1]. Although Alan was only one of numerous officers who witnessed the object, he was the only to make waves by filing an official and detailed report.

Examples do exist of police departments bucking the trend, and it seems this is becomming more prominent in the US. In the case of the Illinois Triangle, of January 5 2000, the Millstadt Police Department published all available information on their department website, including statements, photographs and sketches made by the officers involved, in addition to the witness officers being available for public and media interviews. Likewise, in Australia, in a case that closely parallels the case of Illinois in many ways, in 1983 near Rockbank/Melton in country Victoria, four officers, including two high-ranking officers, witnessed and corroborated the appearance of a massive triangular object manoeuvring about the area. The officers received widespread media attention at the time. Similarly, in the Gosford UFO deluge of December 30/31 1995, police received media attention, although station hand Sergeant Bob Wenning was the primary speaker on behalf of his officers.

The chance sighting of a UFO, however, is only a small part of the UFO topic. Generally speaking, a witness to a UFO has little to fear from society. The UFO story is much more complex though. Government insiders have much more to fear. Those who have secretly amassed huge files on UFO cases have much more to loose. Having signed a secrecy contract, they have severe official consequences in store. Those witness to the clandestine UFO crash recoveries will be harshly silenced, and for those exposing government secrets pertaining to UFO-based re-engineered technology, often don’t live long enough to back up their stories.

This is what has led to the need for an unofficial UFO disclosure process. Those in the know want to get critical information into the public, yet fear the consequences. An unofficial disclosure process, facilitated by Disclosure Organizations, gets that information out while offering protection for the witness.

Of all the disclosure organizations, the most well known, and probably most effective, is arguably that created in the US by Dr Steven Greer, who has now published core testimony in his book "Disclosure - Military and Government Witnesses Reveal the Greatest Secrets in Modern History ". Backed up by official documents, the hardcore testimony of a selection of five dozen high-ranking authorities is drawn together from Greer's disclosure project to reveal the worldwide covert program to cover-up and control UFO information. With the heaviest of testimony, he proves once and for all that UFOs are very much real, that they represent invaluable advanced technology from elsewhere, and that a select elite are withholding this knowledge from humanity. Revealed in his book is the real agenda behind the Star Wars project as a hoax upon the taxpayer to spend trillions on a weapons build-up, and the reality of cheap energy and anti-gravity propulsion systems. Military, government, NASA, intelligence, black-budget, and corporate witnesses disclose with absolute clarity that secret UFO-based technology exists, and that it could bring us a new civilisation free of pollution and poverty and capable of travelling among the stars. Greer's work demonstrates that the progress of civilisation been deferred for over 50 years, and all for greed and power for the few. Yet Greer offers the culprits a win-win way out of the mess - Disclosure and amnesty. Disclosure features testimony from Police Constable Alan Godrey, Astronaut Gordon Cooper, Former-Head of British Ministry of Defence Five Star Admiral Lord Hill-Norton, and Nick Pope of the British Ministry of Defence. For anyone serious about exposing UFO secrecy, Disclosure is a must-have.

Consequently, UFO disclosure has become a political process. While most in government are not privy to classified UFO information, our elected officials do have pivotal power in exposing the secrecy surrounding UFOs, not least of which is via official parliamentary (or congressional) hearings. Although most UFO organizations do not focus on political disclosure, it is usually considered at least one arm of their organisational function.
