UFOnut.com gets paranormal reports weekly through submissions and through personal emails to me. This particular report was emailed to me personally from Brenda Harris of New Mexico.  The mutilation occurred on an Indian Reservation near her location, and due to it being an on-going investigation, I can’t go into details about some the specifics. The following message was the email I received from Brenda.

[ Expert from the email Brenda Harris sent me. ]

Hello Mr. Zukowski how are you? I just finished listening to your interview about how you were fired when you were doing an investigation on horses being killed and how they were killed. I have been doing some investigating on sheep killings out here on the reservation that started last June. A family contacted me about what happen to their sheep, 4 of them and 1 dog were killed. How they were killed shocked me when I found a puncture wound on their neck and their blood was sucked out of them. That’s all it wanted, was the blood and not one drop of blood was found around them at all. Two months later it came back and did the same thing to the the other sheep and this went on throughout the summer last year. This family lost a total of 9 sheep. The last incident happen in November last year but this one took 1 sheep and 1 dog and 1 ram. I do have pictures on all the sheep and goats that were killed.

I’ll send some pictures to you sometime this afternoon. One of the sheep looks like a perfect circle where the wool was ripped off, and also around the wool it sure looks like a burn mark. Around the wool and on the other sheep looks like a possible nail print.

Note: Brenda and I are in communication about her investigation in which I am sharing information about my cases to her.

I have received animal mutilation pictures in the past from website readers which have involved animals other than cows and horses. Goats and sheep were mutilated in the UK, Dominican Republic, and New Zealand. A few years back while investigating the Marley Woods case in Missouri with Ted Phillips, I interviewed a rancher who came across a mutilated coyote while hunting. Back in 2009 while investigating rancher Miller’s calf mutilation, I talked to a local rancher who lost a family dog a week before. All four of its paws were removed. The rancher said they appeared to have been precisely cut off. So it’s not uncommon for the mutilation phenomenon to involve animals other than cows and horses.

Dodge County News recently reported a calf mutilation occurring on Saturday April 14th 2012 in Dodge County, Georgia.

[ Excerpt from the Dodge County News article. Link at end of this blog. ]

The article stated rancher Gillis had never seen anything like this in his 33 years of cattle ranching. This rancher is obviously not an amateur when it comes to raising cows.  After his incident he was curious and started searching the Internet for other cases in his area and found there was a previous mutilation in Hall County Georgia in 2009. That mutilation had almost the exact same damage found on one of their bull calves. That rancher had another cow mutilated two weeks before the calf. The year 2009 was hot here in Colorado too with over a dozen animals mutilated that I know of. Rancher Miller lost a calve and rancher Sanchez lost four calves. Coincidence? Of course not!

I contacted rancher Gillis and we talked about his mutilation case and the similarities to the cases I previously investigated. He then sent me this un-released photo. If new information is learned from his case and he approves release of it, then I’ll post a follow-up blog

Thank you Brenda Harris and rancher Windell Gillis for sharing your personal information in order to educated all of us about this disturbing type of phenomenon.

All four events includes special guests, performances, film festivals, activities, and guests in costumes related to their favorite characters. Special guests included actor Johnathan Frakes from Star Trek, actor John Noble from the sci-fi series Fringe, actress Jewel Staite from various TV shows and movies, actor David Prowse who played Darth Vader, and my favorite actress Dee Wallace, best known for her role as the mother in ET.

I’m standing next to Charlie Garcia’s B9 Robot

Sharing the stage and all the action at Denver’s Starfest was Denver’s RoboCon. This event was originally organized by Charlie Garcia. Back in 2006 Charlie visited Mike Joyce’s B9 Creations Lost in Space Robot Factory in Deadwood, South Dakota. Mike Joyce, Robot technician Greg Logue and Charlie began discussing a gathering of some type for the B9 Robot Builders Club. Charlie suggested he would organize an event in Denver the following year and would call it “RoboCon”. In 2007 Denver saw its first RoboCon and thanks to Charlie not only is it a place for all club members to meet and discuss their latest adventures, but it gives the general public an opportunity to experience the B9.

Thank you Charlie… and why the name B9?

The Jupiter 2 crew from Lost in Space referred to the Model B9 robot as just Robot. The term B9 was used in the second season episode “The Ghost Planet”, but throughout the series they just refereed to him as “Robot. The B9 Robot Builder’s Club is the place to go if you want to build you’re own Robot and travel Lost in Space.

Ok I have to talk about Elvira. Why? Well two reasons. First, the one in this picture is my daughter Ashley, and second, while living in California I used to watch Elvira host, “Elvira’s Movie Macabre”, a weekend horror show which aired the worst B rated horror movies you’d ever seen. Elvira would start the show off talking about the film, then all through the airing she would make funny comments at commercial breaks and sometimes cut in while the movie was running. It was great and always fun to watch.

Oh another reason some of us Colorado Springs residents likes Elvira is, she graduated from Palmer High School right here in the ‘Springs. Graduating in 1969, she shot off to Las Vegas and became a showgirl at the Dunes casino. In 1981 five years after the death of Larry Vincent who starred as host, “Sinister Seymour” at a local Los Angeles weekend TV horror show, the role was reprised with Cassandra Peterson who created the character Elvira. The rest is history.

Rober O’Reilly and JG Hertzler “The Klingons!”

Robert O’Reilly has appeared in eight episodes of Star Trek DS9, five episodes of Star Trek The Next Generation, and one episode of Star Trek Enterprise. JG Hertzler has played eight different characters in the Star Trek universe including several different Klingons. He’s appeared in Star Trek Enterprise, Star Trek Voyager, and Star Trek: DS9. These two very talented actors put the Kling in Klingon. While on stage and even off stage, in costume they walked and talked Klingon. Oh they sang Klingon too!

Dee Wallace

Dee Wallace broke into both TV and cinema screens in the mid 1970′s. You may have seen her on TV’s Lucas Tanner, or The Streets of San Francisco, Starsky and Hutch, Police Woman, Hart to Hart, Chips, Taxi, I can go on and on, but one of her most memorable roles was in 1982′s, E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial.

ET directed by Steven Speilberg, has been one of the most popular alien type movies to have hit the big screen. Even today you can hear young and old alike say, “home” while pointing their finger. (The index one) The movie’s budget was just over 10 million and barely recouped that on opening weekend. At the end of 2002, the movie had grossed close to 800 million dollars worldwide.

Dee’s role Mary in ET, was mother to Michael, Elliot, and Gertie. One of my favorite lines in the movie was when Michael and Elliot are arguing over what Elliot saw in the yard. Michael says “Maybe an elf or a leprechaun”, and Elliot’s reply was “It was nothing like that penis-breath!” In which a laughing Dee Wallace as Mary yells, “Elliot! Sit down.” I bet Dee Wallace didn’t have to act out that laugh.

Another one of Dee’s talents isn’t acting, it’s Channel Healing. I was fortunate enough to have Dee channel me in a session answering a question that had been bothering me for sometime now. Not a serious question but one related to my investigations. I was happy and relieved with her results. You can learn more about Dee’s Channel Healing and radio show at her website: ( iamdeewallace.com )

Note: I have an autographed photo of Dee from the movie ET hanging in my office. I got the autograph when my sister Debbie and I met Dee a couple of years ago at a Roswell Festival which we were lecturing. I had to get another signed photograph from her at Starfest because this photograph was just released to her for distribution from the one and only, Rob Zombie. Rob is director and writer for soon to be released movie, “The Lords of Salem” in which Dee stars in. So now I have an autographed picture from a movie which hasn’t been released yet. Pretty cool and that’s why you go to Starfest.

Richard Taylor and Zack Beins on left, Brian Bonner on right sporting the luminous tie.

What’s better than going to Starfest 2012? Going to Starfest 2012 and watching the worst B movie I’ve ever seen about zombies. It was so bad, it was great! The film, “Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer”, had everything you wanted in a good B movie horror film and more. The “brain” child of Richard Taylor and Zack Beins was filmed on a shoe string budget around $4000 in their home town of Denver. They were literally working on the audio the night before the showing to complete the film. Without falling into the “spoiler-alert” scenario about the story, let me just say it had everything from bowling, to bad acting, to one very basic CG effect. The majority of the effects were done with good old movie props, make-up, and ingenuity. The bad acting and the bad effects were an intentional delight comparison with the low-budget B movie horror films of the 1950′s. I use to stay up late at night and watch those old movies hosted by the greats of the macobre, Sinister Seymour and Elvira.

One of my favorite parts of the film was when Bryan Bonner and Matthew Baxter from Rocky Mountain Paranormal Research Society were killed. I cheered! Out loud! Zombie-fied in the eyes of “Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer”, Brian was halved and Baxter was ‘blown” up. You’ll have to see the show to appreciate their deaths. I had the opportunity to work with Bryan and Baxter previously, and even though people may not agree with some of their conclusions, you can never say they’re not thorough and you can never say you didn’t learn something from them. All kidding aside, they’re nice guys, fun to work with, a pleasure to talk to, and I would definitely work with them again.

Starfest 2012 was an exciting experience to savor, from checking out the cool collectible toys in the vender section, to seeing and meeting the icons of science fiction, to continuously enjoying all the people in costume. Oh did I mention I got a cool Buckaroo Banzi patch for my Harley vest? Can’t wait to get that puppy sewn on. Anyway, I’m already thinking about next years Starfest. In 2013 their invited guests are, Patrick Stewart, Stan Lee, Amanda Tapping, and Bruce Campbell. Yeah I know, from Star Trek to Stargate, to Stars of Marvel to just Stars, next year will be a must, unless we don’t survive 2012.

Maybe the Avengers will save us, why else would Stan Lee agree to speak next year at Starfest?

My good friends at Openminds.tv interviewed me at the 2012 UFO Congress and released this video. The following link is to their website.

Hear ya there!

Tuesday March 20th at latitude 16 39′ 44″ North, longitude 98 11′ 16″ West, the city of Oaxaca, Mexico experienced a 7.6 magnitude earthquake which triggered a tsunami alert. Was this related to the equinox?

An equinox happens twice a year on the days with equal daylight and darkness as the Sun crosses the celestial equator. The tilt of the Earth’s axis is inclined neither away from, nor towards the Sun. The center of the Sun is in the same plane as the Earth’s equator, in other words on a specific time, the Sun is observed directly over our equator.

What can happen on equinox days? Some say gravitational changes can affect ocean tides and Earth tides. Earth tides consist of large amounts of underground water. Gravitational effects can also effect the “Ring of Fire”

The Ring of Fire is an area of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that encircles the basin of the Pacific Ocean. Shaped like a horseshoe and 40,000 km long, it’s a part of oceanic trenches, volcanic mountain ranges and plate movements. 90% of the world’s earthquakes and 81% of the world’s largest earthquakes occur along the Ring of Fire.

Can changes in Earth’s gravitation affect animals too? Birds and fish have Magnetite in their bodies. Magnetite could be used in birds and fish to hone in on Earth’s magnetic field helping them with migration. Before major earthquakes in the past, birds and fish have experienced massive die-offs which could be attributed to sudden changes in the Earth’s magnetic field. Are these animals so in tune to our planet, that a change in magnetic field confuses their guidance system causing their demise?

What’s so special about Magnetite? (Wikipedia)

Magnetite is the most magnetic of all the naturally occurring minerals on Earth. Naturally magnetized pieces of magnetite, called loadstone, will attract small pieces of iron, and this was how ancient people first noticed the property of magnetism. Lodestones were used as an early form of magnetic compass.

Magnetite is also found in most meteorites, making it a very common element of the cosmos.

Also reported on this day March 20th, thousands of fish die in the Pelican River.

(excerpt from article)

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources suspects low oxygen levels caused thousands of fish to die in the Pelican River over the past several days.

A DNR fisheries crew paddled the river by canoe Monday to assess the extent of the fish kill near Orr. Fisheries supervisor Kevin Peterson says it stretches about 2 miles, from the dam at St. Louis County Highway 23 downstream past Highway 53.

Peterson says the dead fish include northern pike, small mouth bass, bluegills, yellow perch, black crappies and bullheads.

Low levels of oxygen, or high levels of Magnetite in their bodies being effected by changes in the Earth’s gravity?

On November 17th 2006 Dr. Stephen Juan posted an article in Biology asking the question, “Do humans have a compass in their nose?”

(excerpt from article)

Some years ago scientists at CALTECH (California Institute of Technology in Pasadena) discovered that humans possess a tiny, shiny crystal of magnetite in the ethmoid bone, located between your eyes, just behind the nose.

In any case, when it comes to humans, according to some experts, magnetite makes the ethmoid bone sensitive to the earth’s magnetic field and helps your sense of direction.

What about the Ring of Fire? While researching magnetite, I came across a website with this map showing concentrations of Magnetite on Earth.

Notice Magnetite is abundant across the planet including along the edges of the Ring of Fire.

Should we be looking at the mineral Magnetite located on this planet which is also embedded in fish, birds and even humans as an indicator or predictor of major earthquakes? How about full moons? A full moon will affect ocean tides, can it affect the magnetite in animals? Humans?

How about the myth more crimes occur during a full moon, or more babies are born during a full moon? Although I found no evidence supporting these claims, an extra pull of gravity might make some people’s senses more acute. Maybe some people with more than average magnetite in their systems are the ones who can predict Earth changes, or at least have an uneasy feeling that something is about to happen.

How about animals predicting earthquakes? There are numerous stories throughout history about cats and dogs acting irrationally right before an earthquake occurs. These dramatic personality changes in animals has even caught the eyes of mainstream science. Quantum geophysicist Motoji Ikeya has found out that certain animals react to changes in electrical currents. Electrical currents are affected by magnetism. He regularly monitors catfish, which he claims is the most sensitive creature he’s tested which helps warn him of coming disasters.

Catfish whiskers, or Magnetite?

Magnetite has also been found at multiple cattle mutilation sites. In a 1997 “Study of Bovine Excision Sites From 1993-1997″ written by Levengood, found microscopic beads of magnetite at excision sites in higher concentrations than in the nearby soil test sites. One theory is the microscopic beads of magnetic are micro-meteorites which fell from the craft which caused the mutilation. My animal mutilation investigations have added looking for Magnetite in soil and animal hide extractions. As of yet I haven’t found high levels of Magnetite near an animal, but did find high levels of Manganese near a mutilated cow in 2011. The soil had four times greater levels near the animal than at my soil test site. That particular soil analysis is still under investigation, and I have more samples to sift through looking for the possibilities of high levels of Magnetite.

So what’s up with Magnetite? Could this be a smoking gun element which can tie major Earth changes to paranormal incidents? Not sure, but I’m definitely keeping an eye on Fe O, and so should you.

On February 15th 2012 my sister Debbie and I pulled off a very successful internet lecture via Skype. If you don’t know what Skype is, you may want to check it out. The basic service is free which includes Skype audio and video calling to contacts on your list. Conference calling and more advanced features are not free, but well worth it, if need be. Most people including me, use Skype to video call friends and family from time to time, especially during the holidays.

But what about using Skype for instructional purposes? What about using Skype for lectures? This was something Debbie and I had wanted to try for some time now, and it wasn’t really that difficult. First you need high speed internet on both ends, then an internet camera either on your computer or a stand-a-lone, and finally an audience. It was that simple.

Sitting here in my office in Colorado while Debbie was orchestrating her monthly MUFON meeting in Missouri, she simply, called me.. or uh.. Skype’d me. (gotta get the lingo right) I had two monitors running on my laptop, so I was able to run my Power Point presentation on one monitor while monitoring the audience video feed to me on the other. You can do it with one monitor, I’m just a geek. There’s a cool little option on the bottom of the Skype window menu which allows you to change the video feed from looking at you, to what’s playing on your monitor. If it’s a Power Point presentation, then the people you’re Skype’ing to, will see your presentation and not your mug, and will still hear the audio of your voice. It’s that simple. You just walk through your Power Point on your computer and talk into your video camera’s microphone. After the lecture, just simply change the option in Skype to return to your video camera, so during Q&A you can see and hear the audience and they can see and hear you.

Now I know some who are reading this are saying, “No big deal, I’ve been doing that for a couple of years now.” True, I’ve been Skype’ing for the past couple of years too, but shame on me for not Skype Lecturing. And this is why..

There are UFO/Paranormal groups meeting in restaurants, community rooms, library’s, and homes monthly, all over the country and other countries as well. The one problem the hosts have running these meetings, are getting guest speakers to attend. The majority of gatherings are running on a shoe string budget, with barely no money at all. Most of them talk about sightings and what not towards the beginning of the meeting, then usually run a video towards the end. They simply don’t have the budget to fly a speaker out, put him or her up in a hotel for the night and pay their expenses.

But what about using available technology?

Most restaurants and libraries have free WIFI available which is a wireless internet network for your computer. All the host needs to do is find a meeting place or home which has this system for use, then simple research their favorite speakers who also has high speed internet at their home. Then both the host’s computer and the speaker’s computer downloads the free version of Skype, if they don’t already have it. Next set up a login account, then send each other contact requests. It’s a little confusing at first for the new-bees, but Skype’s help section is full of on-line guides which will walk you through it.

Ok I talked about Skype, so what type of system do you need? What works?

Well you need a computer with a minimum 1 GHz CPU, at least a 32MB graphics card, and at least 256 MB of memory. For lecturing I would recommend 1.8 GHz CPU, 64MB graphics card, and 512 MB of memory. Anything larger is a plus. Next you have to download the Skype software, Skype 4.2 software for Windows or higher, and Skype 5.0 for Mac or higher. You can also use a TV which is Skype compatible. Next you need a high-speed broadband connection, a web camera (either built in to your laptop or a stand-a-lone), a microphone (which usually comes with the web camera), and auxiliary powered speakers so your audience can hear the lecture. Finally your audience will need to see the speaker, so a video projector or large flat screen monitor will help.

Most commercial WIFI systems are high speed, so the only challenge is to find a speaker who has high speed at home. Why does it have to be high speed, well Skype documentation states video calling (high-quality) should be at leas 500 kilo bits per second speed. If you want to transfer HD quality video, then you should have at least 1.5 Mega bits per second speed.

Why do you need higher internet speeds? Because you’re data streaming audio and video signals simultaneously. That’s a lot of data to push through the telephone lines. Slower systems will result in video chopping and and audio dropping which would hinder an online lecture’s professionalism.

Now let’s talk about guest lecturers.

Start with people you may personally know at first until you get comfortable with the technology and get all the lecture type bugs out of the system. Then I would go after those individuals in the industry who may be pushing a new book or promoting an event they will be speaking out. Ask them for just 30 minutes of their time to promote their book or promote their event. Usually they’ll speak longer. Also remember your guest speaker needs to get something out of it too, especially if they are doing it for free. Generally a large audience or an on-line news letter promoting them and their book or event will do the trick.

Next you can tackle large “Skype Conferences” which I’ve been looking into. These type of events involve professional audio video hardware which project your speaker’s image on large screens in front of equally large paid audiences. These type of lectures have been going on in the corporate industry for years, but now affordable technology has brought it to the end user. You and me.

Anyway, something to think and ponder about, and an easy way to see your favorite speaker without having to travel or spending large amounts of money during a very distressed economy.

As a former Deputy Sheriff, I’ve had other law enforcement men and women tell me about their unusual experiences, from ghosts, to UFO sightings, to cattle mutilations. Always afraid to tell anyone of their experiences because of the ridicule factor, they found some comfort telling me. I guess it was because I’m an investigator and “at the time” a deputy sheriff, they knew I wouldn’t laugh or ridicule them. It’s sad that law enforcement individuals who are expected to give so much of themselves for the public have to feel this way. Not only are they uncomfortable talking to the public about their experiences, they’re also afraid to talk to their command staff. What a shame, and shame on the command staff. ( You know who you are. ) I saw this first hand when I was terminated in February of 2011 from my Reserve position here in El Paso County Colorado, for contradicting the sheriff’s department’s misinformation to the public about a horse mutilation. They said one thing to the press, I said another. As it turns out, the department actually gave the press false information when comparing what they said to the actual case report. Instead of learning about the phenomenon, they decided to ignore it. Not professional and not very smart. But there are law enforcement agencies who do not turn a blind eye to strange phenomenons and actually try to understand them. I’ve been very lucky to work with these departments and the individuals who represent them. Which leads me to this blog.

UFOs, Above the Law. ( True Encounters with Law Enforcement ) I normally don’t do book reviews, but every now and then there is an exception to the rule, and this is the exception. A very big exception.

My good friend Frank Soriano and his close friend James Bouck put together one of the finest and probably only publication on UFO encounters involving law enforcement men and women and their agencies. It is such a pleasure to read these cases and I highly respect those law enforcement representatives who came forward and freely talked about their encounters. Oh sure there are some reports in which the names are not given, and that points back to the ridicule factor, but even though those men or women who didn’t want their name released, still felt compelled to tell their story, and for that, I thank them.

The book starts off with a foreword by good friend, Richard Dolan. Richard is a highly respected researcher in this crazy field we call, “UFOlogy. Richard, the son of a New York City police officer, not only knows this phenomenon but also knows how personal sightings could affect professionals involved in law enforcement. Richard says it best referring to police officers who had sightings, “.. they will find comfort in the knowledge that, just as we are not alone in the universe, they are not alone among their brothers and sisters in blue.

This book prepares the readers by first, defining what a UFO is, then second, mentioning briefly some very important sightings in past history, then third, talking about some very influential people who have had sightings of their own. But if you’re like me, you’re going to dive right into reading the sightings reported by the cops themselves. And as a plus, Frank writes about his own personal experience which changed his life. I especially like the way Frank and James put actual officer/dispatch dialogue in the book too! It makes you feel like you were right there listening to their conversations.

A couple of sightings from the book in which to wet your whistle are, “Chopper Cops and UFO Go Round and Round” and “UFO Gets On Chopper’s Tail”. These cases, from the “Bob Pratt Files”, talks about encounters Police helicopters have with our unknown friends buzzing around the city. Other stories in the book include; “Corrections Officer Observes Huge Triangular Craft Over-Fly Prison”, “Two Policemen See and Shoot Video of UFO and Four Small Humanoid Figures (Argentina)” and “Huge Glowing UFO Hovers Over High Tension Tower and Follows Police Spotlight”, just to name a few. If you want to know more, you’ll have to buy the book. I guarantee you’ll be happy you did.

For researchers and investigators, this book is packed full of very important reference information you’ll need to have in your library. It’s also the perfect book for new enthusiasts who want to learn more about this field. Finally to my former brothers and sisters of law enforcement.

This is a must buy, and please don’t hide in your patrol car or alone in the break room reading it, share its knowledge with your peers and help stop the ridicule movement.

At the end of the book Frank and James also have a personal request for the representatives of law enforcement.

( excerpt )

If one person sees a UFO, probably more have seen it also, but are intimidated and scared to come forward. We ask that you stand up and be counted like your brothers and sisters in law enforcement and let everyone know what you have seen. Maybe it can be explained, maybe not. But stand up and be counted.

Thank you Frank Soriano, thank you James Bouck, and a special thank you to all involved within law enforcement who contributed their experiences with us.

UFOs Above The Law “True Encounters with Law Enforcement”

by Frank Soriano and James Bouck,  “Schiffer Publishing Ltd”

(Excert from KCTV website article)

KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) – Kansas City police are investigating a bizarre and disturbing crime involving livestock in the Northland. Someone had entered a private pasture and cut out a cow’s reproductive organs, possibly while the cow was still alive. Rancher Casey Hamilton called police Thursday morning, directing them to a pasture at 120th and Brightwell, just west of Kansas City International Airport. He told them he had separated the 7-year-old cow from the rest of his cattle because she was sick. He had been treating her and said that when he left her at 6 p.m. Wednesday, she was standing and eating. When he returned Thursday at 6:30 a.m., she was dead with two distinct chunks of tissue removed. “For somebody to get a 1,200 pound cow down and do that,” Hamilton said, “they had to know what they were doing with a tranquilizer.” He said there were no bullet holes in her nor signs of rope marks, but there were signs of a struggle. “The cow had struggled on the ground,” said Aaron Brisbane, the veterinarian who examined the animal. Brisbane said he could not determine whether the thrashing came before or after the cow died, but he said there was no legitimate reason for the surgical procedure the animal underwent. Someone had cut out the cow’s udders, bag, mammary glands and vulva. He said  that was the only tissue removed. “The way the cuts were done,” Brisbane said, “someone had to have done this before.” He said it appeared the precise cuts were made with a scalpel. “It was too clean to have been done with a knife or a box cutter,” he said.

When I heard about the mutilation and watched the Fox News report, I then remembered Margie Kay the host of 2011′s Midwest UFO Conference I had lectured at, lived near the area. I immediately contacted my sister Debbie who is MUFON’s State Director for Missouri to help me get in touch with Margie and arrange a meeting. As soon as I was able to talk with Margie, I learned she was already on the case.

The following excerpt is from her investigative notes:

( Picture courtesy of Margie Kay )

Facts:

Mr. Hamilton leases this land from KCI airport, along with other ranchers. The cattle keep the grass low and that discourages deer from the area where they can cause prob-lems for the planes.

He placed this cow in this location to keep her away from the rest of the heard because she had been ill. On Wednesday, January 4 in the late afternoon he and the vet visited the cow to give her an antibiotic, and at that time she was improving and walking around.

The next morning, on Thursday, January 5, Mr. Hamilton found the cow lying dead ap-proximately 50’ North of the gate entrance. The cow was mutilated with her udder and vulva removed. No other part of the cow had been touched. The vet said that there was no blood, and that the cuts had been made with a precision instrument, and that the cow was alive when the cuts were made. He did not know the cause of death.

Mr. Hamilton moved the cow to a ditch out of sight of the road, and placed coyote traps around her. ( Picture courtesy of Margie Kay )

Margie and I had traded emails back and forth and the following is just one of them:

Unless you can get some formalin to submerge the sample, the sample would be useless for a lab. But!! If you can get some soil samples where the animal was mutilated then that would be great! Each sample about a cups worth  near where the Inscions were made then one test sample about 20 yards away from the animal in similar vegetation. Of course take pictures and get measurements of the incisions and ask the rancher which way the head was pointing. NSEW??

By the time Margie and fellow investigator Geremy Pearce ventured out to the investigative site, the mutilated cow had been destroyed. Not being too discouraged, Margie and Geremy still performed a field investigation looking for anomalies and collecting soil samples for me.

Upon receiving the samples, I in turn re-packaged the samples with the necessary documentation and mailed it off to a lab I use for analysis. My intentions are to compare the Kansas City soil analysis with my Colorado soil analysis from the August 2011 Duran mutilation. The Colorado soil showed high levels of Manganese near the animal compared to the test sample which was at least 20 yards away.

As soon as I get the results back from the lab, I’ll send copies to Margie and then post them here on this website.

The following (off topic) video I made is not only a reminder for me of less fortunate people I’ve previously met while in law enforcement, but also a reminder that there are honest people out there who truly need help.

UFOnut.com would like to say, “Just because the holidays are over, shouldn’t mean we forget about those less fortunate throughout this new year.” “I hope the following video says it all.”

Thank you, and have a safe and Happy New Year!
