      Evidence of remains involving innocent children are now surfacing which would make your skin crawl. It is obvious that there is a deep satanic, evil, perverted, political Underworld that is being linked with some of those disappearances that would rival the Nazis. That needs to be exposed and brought to the surface and perpetrators need to be sent to prison, or executed. Do a search using the word - Adrenochrome and it will lead to just the tip of the iceberg.

    • @P_RO_
      @P_RO_ 4 года назад +16

      @@RS-ol8or There's a lot of common factors with them all. Probably biggest is that usually nobody local knows them well if at all, so it's awhile before anyone looks for them and by then clues are scant at best. Second is that there's either nobody or nobody who cares within earshot so screams or other signals of distress go unanswered. Poverty is an extremely common factor, but not an absolute. Poverty almost always means a lack of ability to provide for and to protect yourself. The deep drug culture isn't only in Mexico- it's here too and anyone in the wrong place at the right time is out of luck rich or poor. Grow ops and labs are found in many remote places because it's a easier to monitor for security there. And if it's Mother Nature at work, well she's a very efficient and often a very quick recycler.
      I've done my share of traveling and I've been in many dangerous places. You've gotta know your 'enemy' and know how to behave wherever you are, and you must remain sober, alert, and ready for anything at all times. If you're traveling don't linger. If you're lingering then become a known part of the people in the area immediately. Miss one of those details and you're likely in trouble. Miss two and you might be the next one disappearing.
      And of course there are those who want to disappear even when nobody else can find a reason for them doing that. There are many hidden reasons people want to end one life to begin another one unrelated to their past. I actually know a few people who are like that to differing degrees. I've got kinfolk who disappeared for legal reasons and nobody knows where they're at- they make anonymous contact with 'home' once in awhile and that's it. I've known dozens of people who left my area like that but I don't know their outcomes. I do know that you can disappear well if you want to, even in today's 'big brother' world of knowledge databases and identity technology. Probably 2 unknown bodies a year are found around here- most are murders and identified but maybe once every 5 years nobody knows who they were. This is an area with about 2.5 million peeps in a 100 mile radius, so even in the woods somebody likely saw the person within 48 hours of them disappearing.

      He only covers the strange, unexplained cases. What do you not get about that?

    Back in the 90's while living in Alaska,there wasn't much to do for entertainment,except of course for pouring a hot cup of coffee and pulling a chair up to listen to your short wave radio, to hear the chatter and scanning the police channels. One day i had my ears on and honed in on a RCMP on patrol talking with his base in Vancouver BC. The gist of the conversation started off with the officer talking to a couple of natives who complained about a very large disk shaped UFO that had been hovering around their village most of the day. The natives were insistent the officer check it out,so the Mountie had to get on one of two horses and go horseback with them up into the mountain native village. When the trio got to the village to discover all of the residents were gone. I remember hearing the officer over his radio telling base there was no one in the village. Meals were still on the tables,even the dogs were gone. I remember hearing over the Mountie's radio the two native fella's going hysterical over the fact their families gone. The Mountie didn't know what to think of the missing people(upwards of 100 villagers). At first he thought it was a prank being pulled on him,but where would villagers hide? and why go through the trouble to pull a real dumb prank?. The Mountie requested backup,because of the remoteness of the village the backup wouldn't arrive until early the next day(no place for helicopters to land). I of course was glued to the radio receiver,.my reception was cutting out. That night i called the RCMP HQ in Vancouver . I spoke with dispatch who transferred me to an officer who i spoke with for several minutes telling him about what i heard over my Short Wave radio. He knew what i was talking about and he thought it was strange as well,anyway i asked for transcripts of the conversation- Native/UFO /Mountie/missing persons radio transmission. I gave him my mailing address and he said he would send me tapes and transcripts of what went on. I waited and waited for my package to arrive,.Surprise,.it didnt arrive at all. So i called back talked to the officer i spoke to and he behaved as if he didn't know what i was talking about. Yeah i thought to myself,.he just blew me off,threatening me with charges of making a nuisance call to police. That ticked me off. As god is my witness,.it happened. I combed British Columbia newspapers for news articles and didn't find anything. so i hope there is someone out there who knows about this to come forward with more on the story. BTW,.the incident happened shortly before the famous Japan Airlines Flight 1628 I broke that story to the National inquirer when it happened and i still have original transcripts from Anchorage Intl.

      Same reason as the ealier lake. Superior is so cold the bodies don't float up. People die in mid sumer from hypothermia. The picture of the swimmers is next to the shore in Duluth where the water is shallow and warms up by late July - early August. I would say most national parks have disappearances because people wander off like it was a shopping mall.

Bradley broke in two suddenly without warning while reportedly doing fine in a storm, leaving just 2 survivors.
      "The Iron Boats go as the Mariners all know, with the gales of November remembered."
      Sadly, the collapse of the US steel industry has nearly brought an end to the era of the 'Iron Boats', and most Lakers now rely on other cargo to pay the bills of operation, but the November storms on the lakes will always remain...

Her case is still ongoing.
    So many people disappear from here that there is a support group that meets for the families of the missing every few months.

    Your story about the town in Iowa, reminds me of a story my Dad told around the dinner table. He was born in Iowa, and grew up in Nebraska. Anyway, the detail I remember was about the 'land opening up and swallowing 2 houses. I don't remember him saying he'd heard of it or saw it himself. He had a lot of cousins. But any other residents would have moved after seeing that. Now think about the New Madrid Fault-line, the area could have had movements in the past when the population was much less, and less was known about earthquakes, and sinkholes, etc.

      I've heard about sinkholes in Iowa too. I'm from MN, and the SE part of the state, north of IA, is known as the driftless area, because glaciers never went there in the ice age. There's a lot of limestone cliffs and caves, where streams will run underground. Limestone is soft and wears away. I know they mine limestone in Iowa.

    About six months ago, after thanksgiving, i think, my mom and i saw a black panther here in arkansas. It leaped over a gate from midway in the road. It jumped a five foot gate, from 12 feet away and never touched the gate or made a sound. It was about seven foot from paw to paw, a tail almost five foot, and was thick, it was so strong and elegant. I saw a brown deer jump from bushes in the field and run for its life. After that day, I knew where many children and adults had gone missing too. I've walked into a wolf den once, but seeing that giant cat was the scariest moment of my life. Until you see its almost supernatural power and elegance, you will not understand why we killed the predators of the past, or just how unsafe the woods are. This field was two miles out of the town of Bono, AR. I live in jonesboro, ar. I called the wildlife management in jonesboro, they didn't care, and they were not surprised. I looked it up on google and found panther sitings on youtube itself. Believe them.

But I think you got one of the details wrong. Dennis, while playing w the other children, literally went behind a bush while the adults were watching. But he never came out of the bush. The adults saw this, and immediately started the search for him. It's truly bizarre. Paulides was one of the only private investigators to personally interview Dennis' father before he passed away.

I have read multiple books on the subject and can honestly say that they are very hard books to put down. I think these stories make a good argument for carrying some kind of tracking device if a person is in a high risk category such as hiking or hunting alone, children, solo travelers and many others.

      I remember that story...he was trying to "save" the bears in Alaska...however, the bears are already protected in Alaska...I guess no one told him....and then brought that poor girl out there who had never been on a camping trip in her life...horrible tragedy...

    Mr Briggs, I especially like these videos that have a spooky element to them.
