PROJECT: ABDUCTION REPORT

PURPOSE: The obtaining and compilation of Abduction Cases.

PERSONS/ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED:
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Budd Hopkins, Dr. David M. Jacobs, Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
|
|
|
|
This is a message with an extraordinary request for you.
|
|
|
|
In 1964 the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena
|
|
(NICAP) issued a compendium of information about UFOs called "THE UFO
|
|
EVIDENCE". This enormously influential and useful volume drew together
|
|
the various aspects of sightings and witnesses into a systematic and
|
|
powerful testament to the reality of UFOs. It was used to educate
|
|
congressmen and the public alike and it helped change the direction of
|
|
UFO research.
|
|
|
|
Now we have the opportunity to proceed with a project that promises
|
|
to be even more powerful and influential. Budd Hopkins and Dr. David
|
|
Jacobs are project directors, in participation with The Mutual UFO
|
|
Network (MUFON), of a major effort to bring together the complexity and
|
|
variety of the abduction phenomenon. The project calls for a
|
|
compilation of abduction cases from around the country investigated by
|
|
as many UFO and abduction researchers as possible. It is hoped that
|
|
new patterns will be identified, new questions can be asked, and new
|
|
directions for research can be developed. A compendium of this type
|
|
can provide authoritative evidence of the reality of the phenomenon for
|
|
UFO researchers, scientists, members of the therapeutic community, and
|
|
skeptics.
|
|
|
|
Obviously this type of endeavor depends on the cooperation of the
|
|
entire UFO research community. Without your help it cannot be done.
|
|
The time has come now to work together in a cooperative effort for the
|
|
good of UFO research. It is only together that we can make substantial
|
|
headway into deciphering the mysteries of this most important
|
|
phenomenon. Both Budd Hopkins and Dr. David Jacobs will be contributing
|
|
their cases and I hope that you will want to make your own contribution
|
|
so that you can be part of this historic undertaking.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, those of you who have had an abduction experience, or
|
|
are aware of any person or persons who have had an abduction
|
|
experience, are requested to also become involved in this endeavor.
|
|
Any information you deem to remain confidential will remain so, as you
|
|
will be dealing with persons of very high professionalism and
|
|
credibility.
|
|
|
|
Here is a short biography of the principles involved with this
|
|
project:

|
SUBMITTING ABDUCTION REPORTS:
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following information is broken down into two sections:
|
|
|
|
1. Researchers/Investigators who have been involved in the research of
|
|
abduction cases.
|
|
|
|
2. Individuals who have had an abduction experience, or are aware of
|
|
someone who has.
|
|
|
|
A. Researchers/Investigators - The cases should be as complete as
|
|
possible. Short fragments are acceptable, but would prefer
|
|
comprehensive cases. "Multiple" cases, in which abductees see
|
|
others abducted, nonabductees see others abducted, or two or more
|
|
people are abducted at once, are important for inclusion.
|
|
|
|
Documentation should accompany reports. Names (or pseudonyms) along
|
|
with the age, sex, and pertinent information about the abductee,
|
|
e.g., physical infirmities, ethnic background, etc, should be sent.
|
|
Include the time, place, and date of the abduction. All names and
|
|
addresses will be confidential. It is also important to send
|
|
supporting material like how the abductee first suspected that
|
|
he/she was involved with the abduction phenomenon, where the
|
|
abductee went for investigation, and so on.
|
|
|
|
If possible, please send a transcript of the hypnotic regression,
|
|
and/or non-hypnotically recalled interview. If it is not possible
|
|
to provide a transcript, copies of audio and video tapes will be
|
|
accepted. If a taped account is used, transcripts will be made by
|
|
us and given to the investigator at the project's conclusion.
|
|
|
|
Please include your name, address, and phone number along with
|
|
information about your years of investigative experience and any
|
|
other biographical data that you deem appropriate. If your cases
|
|
are used, you will be asked to sign a release allowing us to publish
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
Either Budd Hopkins or Dr. David Jacobs will be happy to provide
|
|
their professional opinion about the methodology employed in your
|
|
case, if you so desire.
|
|
|
|
Please send your cases either to:
|
|
|
|
Budd Hopkins David Jacobs
|
|
246 W. 16th Street - or - 607 E. Gravers Lane
|
|
New York, NY 10011 Wyndmoor, PA 19118

|
|
project.
