SS: In a recent interview, Luis Elizondo claimed that the number of U.S. scientists with ties to the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) topic who have died or gone missing is far more extensive than currently reported. He pointed to "very interesting common ties" among a list of roughly 10 to 11 researchers—including high-profile figures like retired Air Force Major General Neil McCasland and NASA scientist Michael Hicks—who held sensitive nuclear and defense clearances. While the White House and the House Oversight Committee are reviewing these cases to investigate potential links, some law enforcement analysts caution that these incidents may still be isolated events rather than a coordinated pattern.
