Houston's alien hunter on a mission / Derrel Sims: Abduction & Implant researcher makes t.v. news

 
 

Derrel Sims, a larger than life Texan living near Houston, is an alien hunter.
"I suspect they're living on a massive craft," said Sims.
Sims walks around in a cowboy hat and coat in the middle of the summer.

"They seem to love fear," he added.
Sims claims to be the world's leading expert on alien abductions, whose fascination began as a child.
"My first interaction with these entities was at age 4 in Midland, Texas," Sims said.
After nearly four decades tracking extraterrestrial events, Sims is now a Hollywood star, appearing in a cable TV show called "Uncovering Aliens."
"So I use my skills as an investigator, a former cop, a combat cop in the military and a private investigator," said Sims.
These days he works with a team to investigate reports of alien activity --looking for proof.
"You usually find markings on these people, cuts, bruises, scratches, lumps, bumps, and things that don't make sense," he said.
So what does an alien look like?
Sims says he's seen one face to face.
"The entity was actually right outside my tent. It stood no more than three feet tall and had a head," he said. "Then there's another being that looks like a reptile. There is a human like being that stands six foot."
Yeah, it sounds crazy but Sims says it's serious and no one is immune. He claims one in every four people is abducted by aliens and the victims come from all walks of life.
"You would be shocked, stunned and amazed to find out who's on my list of clients," Sims said. "There are scientists, intelligence people, NASA scientists and others who are abductees. It doesn't make a difference. You can be a genius."
So what puts you most at risk for an alien event? Sims says his research points to a pattern.
Many of the people being taken, that turn out to be abductees, are Native American Indians, Irish, Celtic.
If a relative was abducted, you are more likely to be a victim too.
Sims believes the phenomenon runs in families.
"Go talk to your family privately," Sims said. "You're going to be stunned with what you're going to hear... because if it happened to you, it'll be in your family lineage."
This online questionnaire will help you figure out if you've been taken.
Still not a believer?
Sims says he doesn't care, "Let's just say I would like to capture one of them."
His hunt continues.
"I still have a lot of work to do," said Sims. "I'm an investigator, finding the evidence and doing something with it is my business."

A Die-Hard Issue: CIA's Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90

Gerald K. Haines, CIA, Studies in Intelligence, Vol 1 No 1 1997

In late 1993, after being pressured by UFOlogists for the release of additional CIA information on UFOs, (3) DCI R. James Woolsey ordered another review of all Agency files on UFOs. Using CIA records compiled from that review, this study traces CIA interest and involvement in the UFO controversy from the late 1940s to 1990. It chronologically examines the Agency's efforts to solve the mystery of UFOs, its programs that had an impact on UFO sightings, and its attempts to conceal CIA involvement in the entire UFO issue. What emerges from this examination is that, while Agency concern over UFOs was substantial until the early 1950s, CIA has since paid only limited and peripheral attention to the phenomena     
             

Congressional Hearings on UFOs

Don Berliner, UFO Briefing Document

Only two formal hearings on UFOs have ever been held. Here is a brief overview of those congressional hearings.   
               

Official UFO Enquiries

Space 2001

Over the years the UFO enigma has given rise to numerous official inquiries. Ostensibly these have attempted to search out the truth of the phenomenon as open mindedly as possible.

Project Sign

Loy Lawhon

There is reliable testimony that in August, 1948, the Technical Intelligence Division at Wright-Patterson and Project Sign, decided to make a formal Estimate of the Situation. The Estimate was a top secret document that contained unexplained sightings by pilots, scientists, and other reliable witnesses. The report concluded that UFOs were of extraterrestrial origin.   
               

Special Report of the USAF Scientific Advisory Board Ad Hoc Committee to Review Project 'Blue Book' (The 1966 O'Brien Committee Report)

U.S. Air Force / reprinted by CUFON

Most people with even a passing interest in UFO have heard of the 1953 CIA "Robertson Panel." Fewer people have heard of the 1966 "USAF Scientific Advisory Board Ad Hoc Committee to Review 'Project Blue Book'" commonly known as the O'Brien Committee. Fewer still have read the "Special Report" of the O'Brien Committee, and understand its place in UFO history.

The CIA, Official History, and You: A Study of Gerald Haines and UFOs

Richard M. Dolan, UFO Magazine, Dec/Jan. 2001

In the version we were allowed to read, Haines made two basic points. The first was that, although the CIA was concerned about UFOs until the early 1950s, it has since "paid only limited and peripheral attention to the phenomena." Second, Haines stated that from the mid-1950s until the end of the 1960s, "more than half" of alleged UFO sightings in the United States were actually of classified and/or experimental aircraft such as the U-2 or SR-71 spy planes.
                   

The CIA's UFO History

Mark Rodeghier, CUFOS (Center for UFO Studies)

After the Cold War ended, the culture of secrecy and the operational style of the CIA began to change. Its director appeared on a radio talk show, and it became possible for citizens to pressure the CIA in ways unheard of during that earlier era. Ufology has been a beneficiary of these changes.
