Summary

In last week’s blog, we looked at a case from Spain that involved three airmen who were stationed at a Spanish Air Force base near Talavera La Real. It was investigated by Juan José Benítez who wrote a report (page 4 of the pdf) and sent it to Flying Saucer Review. The report was translated into English by Gordon Creighton, and it was published in the Vol. 23, No. 5, February 1978 issue.According to Benítez, the three airmen, José María Trejo, Juan Carrizosa Luján, and José Hildago were on guard duty after midnight on November 12, 1976. Trejo and Carrizosa were in their sentry boxes, and Hildago was on patrol with a German Shepherd. At around 1:45 a.m., Trejo and Carrizosa heard what sounded like radio interference, which then turned into a piercing, high-pitched whistle that hurt their ears. The whistle started and stopped repeatedly, and the two men, armed with Z-26 quick-firing rifles, searched the area where it seemed to be coming from.They then saw a light that looked like a flare high up in the sky that lit up a wide area. Hildago came by with the dog and he had also seen the light. They were joined by a corporal and two support guards, and they went to do a search.After hearing branches breaking in a stand of eucalyptus trees and sending the dog in repeatedly, they saw a luminous green figure that was about three meters tall with what looked like a helmet on its head, long arms, thick body, and it didn’t seem to have any legs or feet. The men described it as being like a bobbin or a spindle. Read more →

0:00.0	They keep telling you that the Jeffrey Epstein story is finished, that it was investigated,
0:04.8	that it was handled.
0:06.1	But here's the part that they never explain, why the charges were so narrow, when the conduct
0:11.4	was so broad.
0:13.1	How does a man with multiple properties, private aircraft, international travel, and a documented
0:18.2	pipeline of victims get treated like a lone offender.
0:22.1	Why were logistics treated as background noise instead of evidence?
0:26.0	Why were facilitators reduced to footnotes instead of defendants?

0:31.7	The Epstein Chronicles exists because those questions were never answered.
0:36.3	This podcast breaks down what the public record actually shows,
