Subject: The Strange Case of Dr. Reed and the Alien Body


This has all the earmarks of a contrived story with too many
inconsistencies. The Aliens are here, but they didn't show up
for this photo session.

A "Dr. Jonathon Reed" claims it happened about 2 years ago. He
was hiking in the woods somewhere in Washington State with his
dog and lost track of her while he was contemplating nature. A
loud commotion is heard nearby. He arrives at the scene too late
to stop the alien from killing his dog. The alien allegedly
killed his dog because the dog was "attacking" the alien. I find
this very implausible. Domestic dogs and most small animals are
terrified of aliens and usually run away. A frightened dog may
standback a short distance and bark at a strange looking
intruder. They don't attack unless provoked. Aliens, at least a
Grey, would not simply kill a dog. They probably would
immobilize it somehow. Unless it was a Chupacabra, which it
doesn't look like from the alleged photographs.

The good Dr. Reed comes to his dogs aid, sees the black,
diamond-shaped UFO hovering, and the alien killing his dog. Does
he film the UFO first, and then get a large stick and beat the
alien over the head to death? Did the alien just stand there and
do nothing after he had just killed the dog? Why didn't the bad
alien attack or abduct Dr. Reed? That hovering ufo he allegedly
had time to take pictures of troubles me. Is this a case of
reverse-missing time? Were the saucer and alien frozen in time
by the angry doctor? Non sequitor here, there had to be another
alien in the craft, piloting it. Why didn't the other alien help
the one who was being clubbed to death or just zip away and
escape? So much for alien comradery and the Hippocratic oath.

Dr. Reed took the alien body home (did he bury his dog in the
woods?). Soon afterwards the alien's body was stolen, but not
the photos. How sloppy for the MIB's and how very convenient for
Dr. Reed!  This all a very familiar scenario. It is text book
P.T. Barnum!  Snake Oil 101. It's any easy sleight of truth to
explain away the never-existing physical evidence. But "let's go
to the the video tape" and take a closer look at the photos!

The photo of the black diamond-shaped ufo looks like a fake. The
scale and perspective is all wrong. Look at the surrounding
plants and shrubs. You could't fit a grey squirrel in that
thing!  It even looks fake. I examined the edges around the ship
in Photoshop. They are much too jagged and do not blend
naturally into the background. The alien photos are not too easy
to dismiss, though. They look good but it could be a cleverly
fabricated dummy. Hard to tell from just the photos. The "red"
blood is odd. I thought greys didn't have red blood, just a pale
fluid.

The whole thing looks suspicious and contrived and appears to be
nothing more than a custom tailored hoax. The presentation on
the Art Bell show by Dr. Reed's agent Robert Raith, seemed
contrived. Even Art Bell had a tone in his voice that hinted at
disbelief of the story. Dr. Reed is making an appearance on the
Art Bell show tonight. Watch for announcements of Dr. Jonathan
Reed on the radio talk show circuit. He'll soon be raking it in,
hawking his book and videotape. Caveat Lector!  But I guess some
people just enjoy being taken in and clubbed to death with
obvious hoaxes!
