Subject: UpDate: John Carpenter Debate - One Of 140


Hello, Errol,

Below is a post regarding the ongoing John Carpenter debate,
and the question of whether he sold unexpurgated files to
Bigelow. Would it be possible for you to run this anonymously,
deleting my header and identifying information? I'd like
the information to be posted, but do not want my name/address
attached.

Thanks very much

To UFO Updates:

I am one of the abductees whose file was sold by John Carpenter
to Robert Bigelow approximately 4 years ago. I am also one of
the original litigants on the legal proceedings versus Carpenter
regarding his sale of the files.

There has been quite a bit of conjecture here on UFO UpDates
regarding whether or not Carpenter sold unexpurgated files to
Bigelow, or whether the files were sold with names, addresses,
and identifying information deleted. I would like to throw in
just a bit of information for everyone to ponder.

At the time of our then-pending lawsuit, our legal counsel
contacted Bigelow, requesting that he return all the files he
had purchased from Carpenter. Bigelow's response (via his
attorneys) was that he would return -only- the files of the
persons filing suit upon receiving a list of our names and a
form signed by each of us releasing him from any culpability in
the transaction.

If the identifying information and names were not intact on the
files Bigelow purchased, just how would he be able to send
_only_ ours back?

My file consisted of written documents, drawings, and oral tape
recordings. The information contained in the documentation
included names, addresses, and identifying information of not
just me, but my spouse, family members, friends, and co-workers.
Multiply that by 140 persons, each with files containing similar
information -- information that could be detrimental, at the
very least, to their livelihood.

I went to Carpenter for assistance because he carried the
initials of a medical professional. Because of his profession,
and because of his expressed confirmation to me, it was my
understanding that the information I divulged to him was
privileged, and fell under the protection of the
therapist/client relationship. Evidently, that relationship has
no guarantees or assurances.

Sincerely,

One of the 140
