What do you think about this?
It was the night of December 29, 1980, on a deserted road outside Huffman, Texas. Betty Cash, her friend Vickie Landrum, and Vickie’s seven year old grandson Colby were driving home from dinner. They saw a light in the distance that grew into a diamond shaped craft hovering low over the road, fire shooting from its base, the air around it shimmering with heat.
They got out of the car. Betty Cash got close enough to the thing that her car door handle was hot enough to leave a burn through her glove.
Then the helicopters came. Twenty three of them, Chinooks the women later identified by sight, flying in formation around the craft as if escorting it away.
Within hours, all three of them were sick. Burns on the skin. Hair falling out. Blistering. Eyes swollen shut. Betty Cash spent twelve days in the hospital. Doctors documented their symptoms as consistent with acute radiation poisoning.
They sued the United States government for $20 million. The case went to federal court in Houston in 1986. The court did not deny they had been injured. It dismissed the case because the women could not prove the craft belonged to the US government, which the government also refused to confirm or deny.
The medical records exist. The court ruling exists. The twenty three helicopters were tracked by witnesses across multiple counties.
Could it be the United States had a craft in the air that night so secret it was worth letting three civilians get burned by it rather than admit it ever existed?
