Brian Texas is small and quiet not the
00:01:35
type of place where you'd expect a runin
00:01:37
with a cold blooded killer but as a
00:01:39
woman we call Sue can tell you it never
00:01:42
hurts to be
00:01:44
prepared well it start like any other
00:01:47
morning my husband was leaving for work
00:01:50
my husband left and I went back into the
00:01:51
bathroom in the master bedroom to finish
00:01:54
getting
00:01:55
dressed I was standing there looking in
00:01:58
the mirror finishing up my hair
00:02:01
and I picked up the makeup
00:02:06
[Music]
00:02:09
mirror and I looked and he had a large
00:02:12
hunting
00:02:14

running you I'll
00:02:28
you you
00:02:31
[Music]
00:02:34
it was very quick and I don't think he
00:02:37
was expecting me to do that I think he
00:02:40
probably was expecting me to plead with
00:02:41
him not to do anything and I reverse the
00:02:44
situation on him Sue had seen the man up
00:02:47
close but authorities were unable to
00:02:54
[Applause]
00:02:58
identify again
00:03:01
she and her husband tried to put the
00:03:03
incident behind them then four months
00:03:06

00:08:37
back away from it within 20 minutes of
00:08:39
the murder Bell was headed straight back
00:08:42
to the crime scene so that Larry's
00:08:44
family could identify
00:08:46
him they opened the back door of the
00:08:49
police car so that I could see him
00:08:51
better yeah that's
00:08:55
[Music]

00:09:10
United I mean part of me is
00:09:13
missing incredibly Edward Bell was
00:09:16
released on bail he promptly cashed in
00:09:20
$140,000 of assets and
00:09:23
disappeared he's not leaving a paper
00:09:26
trail probably he's changed his name
00:09:29
name and he's living somewhere where
00:09:33
someone doesn't know how dangerous he
00:09:35
[Music]
00:09:37
is it just doesn't seem right that this
00:09:40
man can be back on the
00:09:43
streets when Larry has been dead all
00:09:46
these years and he's still at
00:09:50
large
00:09:51
update when this story aired at least
00:09:54
two viewers recognized Edward Bell one
00:09:57
said he recently met Bell during a
00:10:00
business trip to Panama City
00:10:02
Panama the other viewer sent these
00:10:05
pictures and a letter claiming that Bell
00:10:07
had lived in Panama for several years he
00:10:10
was prospecting for gold on land near
00:10:12
Panama City the Panama police were able
00:10:16
to locate Mr Bell at which time they
00:10:19
placed him under arrest and uh the FBI
00:10:22
along with the Panama City Police
00:10:25
Department then brought Mr Bell back to
00:10:27
the United States Larry's mother and
00:10:29
sister were at the airport when Belle
00:10:32
arrived finally a decade and a half
00:10:34
after Dorothy Lang's son had been gunned
00:10:36
down before her eyes his accused killer
00:10:39
shuffled past her Shackled In hand and
00:10:42
leg
00:10:43
cuffs when he got off the airplane he
00:10:46
seemed so arrogant and it it just
00:10:48
infuriated me here they're bringing this
00:10:51
murderer back and they could never bring
00:10:53
back my
00:10:55
son the wounds will never heal the hurt
00:10:58
will always be there that I've lost my
00:11:01
brother but at least Justice will be
00:11:04
done and I think we'll all be able to go
00:11:07
on with our
00:11:09
lives Edward Harold Bell was convicted
00:11:12
of murder and sentenced to 70 years in
00:11:14
prison he has since been named as a
00:11:17
person of interest in the murders of six
00:11:19
young girls in the Galveston Texas area
00:11:22
Bell will be eligible for parole in the
00:11:25

00:12:26
I was very confused it made no sense my
00:12:29

prank the anonymous caller said that
00:12:59
Monica Rizzo had been murdered by her
00:13:01
husband and that there were bones in her
00:13:04
backyard to prove
00:13:06

closet her car was parked in the
00:13:33
driveway nothing seemed to be missing
00:13:35
except Monica
00:13:38
Rizo in the backyard detectives did find
00:13:42
bones but they clearly belonged to some
00:13:44
kind of an animal the anonymous caller
00:13:48
appeared to be
00:13:52
wrong hell you need to go back and
00:13:54
search their house again Leonard Rizzo
00:13:56

00:14:05
detectives that went out there and take
00:14:06

00:14:09
appeared to be human
00:14:14
[Music]
00:14:16
bones detectives collected a skull a
00:14:19
number of bone fragments and even a bag
00:14:21
filled with what appeared to be human
00:14:24
flesh Tom take a look at this Leonard
00:14:26
Rizzo had some explaining to do
00:14:28
[Music]
00:14:30
there in my yard are an absolute mystery
00:14:33
to me as as big a mystery as my wife's
00:14:38
disappearance uh to me there's to me
00:14:42
there's no question to me I'm someone is
00:14:45
trying to draw attention from themselves
00:14:47
someone is doing this to
00:14:49
me detectives learned that on another
00:14:52
occasion Monica's co-workers had been so
00:14:54
worried when she didn't show up for work
00:14:56
that they asked the police to check on
00:14:58
her at home yeah are you okay yes I'm
00:15:03
fine it looks like there's some bruising
00:15:05
on your face no I just failed I I'm fine
00:15:09
you sure you're okay
00:15:14
yes there was no domestic abuse there
00:15:16
was no domestic violence my wife and I
00:15:19
were deeply in love we are deeply in
00:15:22
love initial DNA test on the bones in
00:15:25
the Rizzo's backyard proved they were
00:15:27
human but whose bones were
00:15:32
they police brought in a team of
00:15:34
archaeologists from the University of
00:15:37
Texas we literally crawled across this
00:15:40
area using our trials and moving the
00:15:42
roots and the moving the grass blades
00:15:44
and looking down beneath the grass and
00:15:47
every time we found a bone fragment or
00:15:48
something the police department
00:15:50
considered might be evidence we' put an
00:15:52
orange pin flag out before they were
00:15:54
done the yard was dotted with dozens of
00:15:57
orange Flags
00:15:59
when you find bone in an old
00:16:01
archaeological site the bone is very dry
00:16:03
this bone still had a greasy feel to it
00:16:06
so we knew it had not been there uh very
00:16:10
long but at the same time it had been
00:16:11
there more than a week or a couple weeks
00:16:14
there was no soft tissue still attached
00:16:16
to it there were bones everywhere even
00:16:20
inside the barbecue grill I picked it up
00:16:23
and looked at it and I was sure it was a
00:16:25
human handbone because it has a
00:16:27
distinctive shape Al it's very small
00:16:29
maybe a half an inch or so what you got
00:16:31
the archaeologists found even more bones
00:16:34
in the barbecue all of them from human
00:16:36
hands sure for 8 Days Dr hard and his
00:16:40
team collected bone fragments 200 in all
00:16:43
most had been chopped into pieces Less
00:16:45
Than 3 in
00:16:47
long we felt it was some kind of machine
00:16:50
some type of chipper shredder has been
00:16:52
discussed quite a bit it's the only
00:16:54
machine that we can come up with that
00:16:56
could possibly account for this type
00:16:58
type of
00:16:59
breakage you wouldn't get it with a saw
00:17:01
you wouldn't get it with a knife you
00:17:04
wouldn't get it with a a lawn mower we
00:17:07
can't think of anything else that would
00:17:08
break up bone like
00:17:10
this once again Leonard Rizzo had some
00:17:13
explaining to do I have never even
00:17:15
operated a wood chipper I have never
00:17:17
renting rented anything in a rental
00:17:20
store uh other than a car dolly uh maybe
00:17:25
trailer uh no I
00:17:29
do not did not operate a wood chipper
00:17:32
never have the lack of a conclusive DNA
00:17:35
test or other hard evidence meant that
00:17:38
no arrest could be made Leonard Rizzo
00:17:41
continued to insist that he had nothing
00:17:43
to do with his wife's disappearance or
00:17:45
the bones in his backyard those bone
00:17:48
fragments and such where they came from
00:17:50
I don't know how they got there I don't
00:17:52
know and I adamantly did not kill them
00:17:55
or anyone
00:17:57
else
00:17:59
update for two years there were no new
00:18:02
developments in this case then Leonard
00:18:05
Rizzo was arrested for attacking his
00:18:07
girlfriend he was convicted on four
00:18:10
criminal counts including assault with a
00:18:12
deadly weapon and
00:18:14
kidnapping later DNA tests revealed that
00:18:17
all the bone fragments were in fact
00:18:19
those of Monica Rizza but the district
00:18:23
attorney still whacks enough evidence to
00:18:25
file charges if you have any information
00:18:28

00:19:20
disoriented a blue duffel bag beside

00:20:32
with my shirts it's with my things the
00:20:34
name brought back hazy memories of San
00:20:37
Diego California 400 m
00:20:40
away Pierre only had $17 he would have
00:20:44
to
00:20:48
hitchhike 3 Days Later Pierre was
00:20:50
wandering the Streets of San dieo
00:20:52
searching for something anything that
00:20:54
might tell him who he
00:20:57
was I was so sure this city would bring
00:21:00
everything back but I saw downtown and
00:21:04
said nothing I looked at the building
00:21:06
and they meant nothing and uh I walked
00:21:10
the streets of the city for a long
00:21:13
time fearing for his sanity Pierre took
00:21:16
Refuge at the St Vincent dep Paul
00:21:18
homeless
00:21:20
shelter we've had cases of people
00:21:22
pretending they didn't know who they
00:21:24
were but Pierre was very unique
00:21:28
sometimes in the other cases the
00:21:30
residents are after something and that
00:21:31
wasn't Pierre's case at all he didn't
00:21:33
ask for anything he didn't even ask for
00:21:37
help after 6 months of physical and
00:21:40
psychological examinations doctors could
00:21:43
find no cause for Pierre's memory loss
00:21:46
their best guess he was suffering from
00:21:49
trauma induced
00:21:52
Amnesia while at St Vincent Pierre
00:21:55
concentrated on Reviving his lost memory
00:21:58
and soon fragments of his former self
00:22:01
began to
00:22:02
emerge Pierre apparently knew a lot
00:22:05
about physics advanced math and
00:22:08
computers he even became convinced that
00:22:11
he could fly an
00:22:14
[Music]
00:22:15
airplane Pierre also found that he had a
00:22:17
talent for music and learned to play the
00:22:19
guitar in just a few
00:22:23
hours tell me something about to help
00:22:26
Pier make sense of his fragmented me
00:22:28
memories we set up a meeting with a
00:22:30
police sketch
00:22:32
artist Two portraits were created
00:22:34
portraits of people who may have been
00:22:36
significant in Pierre's past Pierre
00:22:40
believed the first was his cousin Luke
00:22:42
nicknamed curly the second drawing
00:22:46
showed a woman Pierre recalled working
00:22:48
with he thought her name might be
00:22:53
Carol if I try to remember something too
00:22:56
hard I get a beautiful headache that I
00:22:58
wouldn't want to inflict on my worst
00:23:01
enemy and most recently like those last
00:23:04
few days if I try not to remember
00:23:06
something that's coming back I get the
00:23:08
same thing I I just want to find out
00:23:12
what the past
00:23:13
is if I
00:23:17
can
00:23:19
update on the night of our broadcast the
00:23:22
woman Pierre called Carol recognized him
00:23:25
as a former employee she she confirmed
00:23:28
that his name is in fact Pierre
00:23:32
Ariel Carol contacted Pierre and told
00:23:36
him that he has two sisters and that his
00:23:38
parents live in Leen Canada where his
00:23:41
father practices medicine the next day
00:23:43
Pierre talked to his dad for the first
00:23:45
time in more than 5 months it was a very
00:23:49
emotional moment and then I even had to
00:23:52
tell him that I couldn't even trust him
00:23:54
100% that I wanted a
00:23:56
package with family pictures in it and
00:23:59
with my birth certificate in it when the
00:24:02
package arrived Pierre and his fiance a
00:24:05
woman he met in San Diego sat down with
00:24:07
a friend to get a first look at Pierre's
00:24:11
long lost past it is strange to be told
00:24:15
who you are and what you did I'm someone
00:24:19
again and for quite a few months I was
00:24:23
nobody and
00:24:24
nothing thanks to our audience Pierre a
00:24:28
has recovered his memory of his past and
00:24:31
his
00:24:35
life coming up strange lights and
00:24:38
bizarre formations are they connected to
00:24:41
forces that we can't explain but a case
00:24:46
with all the trademarks of an organized
00:24:48
hit except a
00:24:55
[Music]
00:24:56
body
00:24:59
on a recent broadcast we profile the
00:25:02
disturbing case of Wendy long Bye Mom
00:25:05
bye sweetie she left her home in kusada
00:25:08
Louisiana for a weekend in shreport and
00:25:10
never came
00:25:12
[Music]
00:25:14
back on the way to streetport Wendy
00:25:17
picked up two friends for an afternoon
00:25:19
of
00:25:20
shopping later the trio hooked up with a
00:25:23
Young Man known only as
00:25:26
Tommy
00:25:29
that night they all hit a party at
00:25:31
another friend's
00:25:33
house and I'm told that Wendy had quite
00:25:36
a bit to drink that night when it came
00:25:39
time for them to take Tommy back home
00:25:43
she didn't want to drive in fact she
00:25:45
didn't want to go with them at
00:25:48
all Tommy later claimed that he was
00:25:51
worried about Wendy so he went back to
00:25:53
the party in his own
00:25:56
car Wendy then accepted his offer of a
00:25:59
ride home on the way Tommy said he
00:26:02
stopped for gas and a quart of
00:26:04
oil when he came back out Wendy was
00:26:08
talking to two young men in a black
00:26:10
Chevy truck hey Tommy come here this is
00:26:13
Mike and
00:26:15
Zant Tommy said that it appeared that
00:26:18
she knew them and Wendy told Tommy at
00:26:21
that point not to worry about it that
00:26:24
she was going to go with them and they
00:26:26
were going to get her home I will get
00:26:28
home okay just go home according to
00:26:32
Tommy Wendy left with the two men Tommy
00:26:35
says he never saw her
00:26:37
again when police questioned Tommy about
00:26:40
that night he agreed to take a lie
00:26:42
detector
00:26:43
test he
00:26:46
passed Tommy even gave a detailed
00:26:49
description of the two men the police
00:26:51
investigated and found nothing but de
00:26:56
ends
00:27:00
update 5 months after Wendy's
00:27:02
disappearance Tommy whose real name was
00:27:05
Robert Stewart was arrested for check
00:27:08
fraud that was enough for the police to
00:27:10
take another look at his connection to
00:27:13
Wendy
00:27:14
long I think in just looking at him as a
00:27:19
possible suspect instead of a possible
00:27:21
witness they started pointing out
00:27:24
inconsistencies in his story steuart
00:27:28
story wasn't just inconsistent this is
00:27:30
Mike and Z it was a total lie when the
00:27:34
information continued to turn up faults
00:27:37
and the story broke down Mr Stewart
00:27:39
began to break down he then confessed to
00:27:42
raping Wendy long and murdering her by
00:27:45
shooting her twice in the
00:27:48
head during one of the subsequent
00:27:50
interviews Mr seart gave investigators
00:27:53
the location of the body investigators
00:27:55
went to that location and found
00:27:58
what appeared to be human remains those
00:28:00
remains ultimately were determined to be
00:28:03
the remains of Wendy
00:28:04
long Robert Stewart pled guilty to the
00:28:07
rape and first-degree murder of Wendy
00:28:09
long he is now in the Louisiana State
00:28:12
Penitentiary at Angola where he will
00:28:14
most likely spend the rest of his
00:28:22
life the barren lifeless desert of
00:28:26
Southern Arizona
00:28:28
if someone wanted to commit a crime or
00:28:30
maybe cover one up there are few better
00:28:33
places than the middle of this desert
00:28:35
100 m south of
00:28:38
[Music]
00:28:42
Phoenix it's unlikely anyone will ever
00:28:45
discover what happened here but perhaps
00:28:48
someone watching tonight can provide a
00:28:51
[Music]
00:28:55
clue the car was still still on fire
00:28:58
when a deputy sheriff arrived
00:29:00
authorities believe that whoever set the
00:29:02
fire was interested in destroying
00:29:04
evidence evidence of a much bigger crime
00:29:09
murder the car was burned to the ground
00:29:12
and the fact is that had there been any
00:29:14
evidence in the car such as blood uh we
00:29:17
weren't able to tell because of the the
00:29:20
burning the car belonged to a
00:29:22
56-year-old Bank executive Lee Young
00:29:25
Lee's job was to investigate possible
00:29:27
fraud cases against his Bank in
00:29:31
Scottsdale when they gave me the
00:29:33
information the car was burned and Lee
00:29:35
wasn't there then my wildest fears just
00:29:38
became a
00:29:40
reality cuz you live with that every day
00:29:43
that something could
00:29:44
happen but you just don't really believe
00:29:47
it ever will had Lee Young been murdered
00:29:50
and his body dumped in the desert there
00:29:52
was an obvious motive young always wore
00:29:56
a very distinctive and very expensive
00:29:58
Rolex watch plus he always carried large
00:30:02
amounts of cash to buy jewelry which he
00:30:04
sold in his spare
00:30:06
time when police opened Lee's trunk they
00:30:09
were in for a big surprise it was
00:30:12
jewelry worth thousands of dollars his
00:30:14
Rolex watch had been taken but why was
00:30:17
the rest of the jewelry left
00:30:20
behind you want to get another one the
00:30:22
only thing missing out of that trunk of
00:30:23
that car that I am aware of is the
00:30:27
briefcase that carried his files so that
00:30:30
makes me believe that it wasn't robbery
00:30:32
motive it was case related of some
00:30:35
sort the robbery Theory lost steam but
00:30:39
another motive took its place oh my
00:30:41
calls Lee Young had recently contacted
00:30:44
federal drug agents he suspected that
00:30:46
his bank was being used by a money
00:30:49
laundering ring our sources in New York
00:30:51
have traced from South America was
00:30:54
investigating a major drug cartel in
00:30:56
columb IIA within 6 months prior to his
00:30:59
disappearance and the case was still
00:31:01
ongoing as a matter of fact at the time
00:31:04
of his
00:31:06
disappearance police pieced together
00:31:08
Young's movements before he disappeared
00:31:11
he left the restaurant in Scottsdale at
00:31:12
around 12:30 p.m. he was never seen
00:31:16
again however Lee or someone else did
00:31:19
use his car phone later that
00:31:23
afternoon a single call came in over
00:31:25
Young's car phone and three calls were
00:31:28
dialed out one went to a phone booth the
00:31:31
others to a woman who denied ever
00:31:34
talking to Lee on the
00:31:36
phone I don't know for a fact that Lee
00:31:38
made these calls in fact it's possible
00:31:41
that Lee was taken down prior to 2:00
00:31:44
Friday afternoon and that uh the three
00:31:46
calls made after 2:00 were made by uh
00:31:50
somebody
00:31:52
else everything points to the fact that
00:31:55
Lee's not alive my my heart still says
00:31:58
he's out there
00:32:00
somewhere but logic tells me he's
00:32:05
not critical information is still
00:32:08
missing in this case who made the phone
00:32:10
calls who torched the car did Lee die in
00:32:14
a robbery gone wrong or did his
00:32:17
investigation into a moneya laundering
00:32:19
operation for a drug cartel get him
00:32:22
killed Connie young hopes that someone
00:32:25
saw her husband's Plum color Lincoln
00:32:27
Town Car between the time he left the
00:32:30
restaurant and the time the car was
00:32:32
found in Flames the next day she also
00:32:35
hopes someone might have seen his copper
00:32:37
faced Rolex watch it has diamonds
00:32:40
encircling the face and on the
00:32:42
band if you have any information about
00:32:45
what happened to Lee Young please log on
00:32:47
to our website at unsolved.com
00:32:52
next it's a mystery that just keeps
00:32:54
showing up the crop Circle invasion of
00:32:58
western
00:33:05
Canada these days almost everyone knows
00:33:08
about crop circles geometric designs
00:33:10
that seem to appear out of nowhere of
00:33:14
the 10,000 documented cases 80% are
00:33:17
proven hoaxes and the other
00:33:21
20% well that's when it gets
00:33:25
interesting
00:33:29
the Canadian Prairie outside of Edmonton
00:33:33
Alberta the farmers you'll find here are
00:33:35
about as down to earth as anyone it
00:33:38
takes a lot to surprise folks like Rusty
00:33:41
Emanuel and Telly
00:33:43
Whitman hey but this formation that
00:33:45
showed up on their land was enough to do
00:33:49
the
00:33:50
trick the grain was all flattened down
00:33:54
and it almost looked like a patter and
00:33:56
like petals the way the grain came out
00:33:57
and then the heads turned back in
00:33:59
towards the center
00:34:00
again it was just
00:34:03
amazing it was just like you see on
00:34:05
television seven precise circles pressed
00:34:08
into a field of Thistle and barley I got
00:34:11
a hold of the city police the city
00:34:13
police did come out uh he was totally
00:34:18
amazed the Canadian crop circle research
00:34:21
Network a volunteer organization that
00:34:24
documents these cases wasted no time to
00:34:27
the site Judy art is one of the group's
00:34:30
field
00:34:32
researchers it looked like a place had
00:34:34
been electrocuted it was just
00:34:40
amazing looked like there had been a
00:34:42
huge force of some
00:34:46
sort Skeptics were quick to dismiss the
00:34:48
whole Affair as a hoax as once shown in
00:34:51
a
00:34:52
documentary pranksters could be seen
00:34:54
making a crop circle they call their cre
00:34:57
a human Land Art it was very clear to us
00:35:00
that it hadn't been flattened by
00:35:02
somebody out there with planks and
00:35:03
Boards you can't do that to thistle it
00:35:06
was very densely grown and it would be
00:35:09
very difficult for anybody to get in
00:35:10
without leaving tracks
00:35:13
[Applause]
00:35:15
behind Paul Anderson director of the
00:35:18
cccn has studied many of the circles in
00:35:21
western Canada well anybody can go up
00:35:23
with a board and flattened on wheat and
00:35:25
yet something you have to take into
00:35:27
account is it's not just the formation
00:35:29
itself but it's the complexity of How
00:35:30
It's actually constructed like multiple
00:35:33
layers going in different directions one
00:35:35
on top of the other and so
00:35:38
on at the Edmonton site Judy AR
00:35:41
carefully documented each of the circles
00:35:44
within the
00:35:45
formation she also gathered up crop and
00:35:48
soil samples for scientific
00:35:52
analysis the samples were sent to Nancy
00:35:55
Talbot in Cambridge Massachusetts
00:35:57
Nancy works with a network of scientists
00:36:00
who have studied more than 350 crop
00:36:02
circle cases from eight different
00:36:05
countries the three major changes in
00:36:08
plants in The Real McCoy as opposed to
00:36:11
man-made crop circles are node
00:36:14
elongation expulsion cavities at the
00:36:17
nodes and germination
00:36:20
abnormalities each of these conditions
00:36:23
was present in the Edmonton sample in
00:36:25
other words the characteristics of the
00:36:27
crops were profoundly altered in ways
00:36:30
that could not be induced by humans
00:36:33
using ropes and
00:36:34
Boards the geometry is precise there are
00:36:38
no tracks in or out the plants are not
00:36:42
damaged they're bent over they're not
00:36:44
knuckled or broken the plants are
00:36:47
changed in their internal structure at
00:36:49
the cellular level you don't find that
00:36:52
in the
00:36:53
hoax the soil samples from Edmonton were
00:36:56
sent to Dr sanath irar in California Dr
00:37:00
irar specializes in materials
00:37:03
analysis we went ahead and looked at the
00:37:06
minerology of the Clays using a
00:37:09
technique called x-ray powder defraction
00:37:12
the results showed a dramatic difference
00:37:14
between soil samples taken from inside
00:37:17
the crop circle compared to those taken
00:37:19
from outside the
00:37:21
circle this has been seen by geologists
00:37:24
before but in a geologic time over
00:37:27
several millions of years this has to be
00:37:30
some kind of fantastic energy that's
00:37:33
causing this
00:37:34
change and I don't have any idea what it
00:37:38
is there are almost as many theories as
00:37:41
there are circles everything from
00:37:44
geothermal and magnetic forces to some
00:37:46
kind of cosmic energy we looked at
00:37:49
meteorology we looked at Earth energies
00:37:52
we looked at chemical application of the
00:37:53
farmers and all of them led to a blank
00:37:57
it just did not
00:37:59
fit what we now know is we have a solid
00:38:02
mystery this cannot be explained uh in
00:38:05
the terms of people making them we have
00:38:07
many hundreds that are absolutely
00:38:10
certainly not man-made and and that is a
00:38:14
a a solid fact there is one final theory
00:38:18
if it can't be explained here on Earth
00:38:21
then look to the
00:38:23
sky I was contacted by a young couple
00:38:27
who had been driving uh along in the
00:38:30
late evening in North Edmonton and he
00:38:33
looked out the window and saw some
00:38:36
lights and rolled down the window to
00:38:38
make sure it wasn't just reflection on
00:38:40
his passenger side window what is that
00:38:42
and the lights were still there he got
00:38:44
quite excited about it and asked his
00:38:46
wife to pull
00:38:49
over there were two small lights
00:38:52
brilliant bluish and they said these two
00:38:55
lights looked like they were playing tag
00:38:56
with each
00:38:59
[Music]
00:39:01
other this sighting occurred about a
00:39:05
week before the uh crop circle formation
00:39:08
was
00:39:10
found around that same time Rusty Manuel
00:39:13
and Telly Whitman had a light show of
00:39:16
their own what's
00:39:18
that first you thought it was a
00:39:20
helicopter because it moved like a
00:39:21
helicopter but still there was no other
00:39:24
lights on it it was just bright and
00:39:27
would just hover over the field and sort
00:39:29
of move off and then come back again I
00:39:32
never seen it like that I tried to
00:39:34
picture it it being an aircraft but it
00:39:36
was too much too big for an aircraft
00:39:39
that's no airplane and it just seemed
00:39:41
like it passed over the back end of the
00:39:43
pickup and it just it just disappeared
00:39:45
it just was so
00:39:48
fast was there a connection between the
00:39:51
strange lights and the sudden appearance
00:39:53
of the Edmonton craft circuit we took
00:39:56
that that question to Seth Shack senior
00:39:59
astronomer at The seti Institute in
00:40:01
Mountain View California I believe that
00:40:04
the aliens are out there but I don't
00:40:07
think that they're visiting here the
00:40:09
fact that so many people feel that there
00:40:12
may be something unusual going on here I
00:40:15
think Bes speaks a psychological need
00:40:17
that we all have to to believe that
00:40:18
there are some powers that we don't
00:40:21
understand and after all it's much more
00:40:23
interesting to think that this pattern
00:40:25
in the weed here was graffiti from
00:40:28
beings from another world than to think
00:40:29
that it was students from the local
00:40:31
University that's not a terribly
00:40:33
interesting
00:40:34
story but there are crop circles that
00:40:37
simply defy logic formations that show
00:40:41
no sign of human
00:40:42
intervention this giant Star of David
00:40:46
literally appeared overnight in red dear
00:40:48
Alberta not far from Edmonton it
00:40:51
measured an incredible
00:40:53
422 ft across impressed
00:40:57
absolutely but for Seth schack it's
00:41:00
still nothing more than smoke and
00:41:03
mirrors I don't understand how they're
00:41:05
all done but to say that they are made
00:41:08
by something other than humans is a
00:41:10
radical revolutionary claim and
00:41:13
consequently I'm not going to be swayed
00:41:15
by what amounts to very anecdotal
00:41:17
evidence it's got to be better than that
00:41:20
I don't think we need necessarily to be
00:41:23
talking or trying to prove that it is or
00:41:25
isn't
00:41:27
extraterrestrial I don't know that
00:41:29
either what I know is what I'm looking
00:41:31
at that has arrived in our Fields
00:41:34
something knows what it's doing here
00:41:35
there is intelligence of some sort and I
00:41:38
know they're not all made by
00:41:42
people over the past decades more than
00:41:45
10,000 crop circles have been reported
00:41:48
from around the world assuming that
00:41:50
8,000 were made by pranksters that still
00:41:53
leaves 2,000 of these strange formations
00:41:56
that are unexplained which makes them an
00:41:59
unsolved
