DUTCH YOUTUBER'S GOING TO JAIL!


Storming Area 51 with cameras turned out to be not such a good idea for a couple of YouTuber's from the Netherlands. As was reported in an earlier podcast the two Dutchmen had bonded out of jail for $500 and were facing what one of the men called a 'lawsuit'. Both seemed agitated and annoyed that they were arrested and facing American Justice.

Subsequently FOX NEWS has reported:

" Govert Sweep, 21, and Ties Granzier, 20, were sentenced to one year in jail with all but 10 days suspended after they pleaded guilty to trespassing and illegal parking, both misdemeanor charges."

The illegal parking charges seems to stem from the fact that according to the article they were parked three miles inside the military base! They must not have been double parked though because all but three days of the ten days they were to serve under the plea agreement have been suspended.

The article goes on to report:

The pair told police that despite being able to read the warning signs that advised against trespassing, they wanted to see the facility.

This would seem to differ from earlier reports the the pair did not understand that they were trespassing. However as FOX points out the pair had a planned trip to Area 51 and even boasted about it on instagram with Granzier publishing the picture '... in front of the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam with the caption “now on to crazy recordings of crazy adventures [at] Area 51,” according to USA Today. The caption has since been changed.'

We also find out from the FOX news article linked above that the men were fined $2280 and lost all of their electronic equipment which included phones, camera, a drone ect. All in all it sounds as if the young men did have a rather crazy adventure that is not over yet!

COLORADO DRONE SWARM What in the world is going on with the drone swarms in Colorado and Nebraska? From newsweek.com we learn: Authorities are offering no explanation for a mysterious fleet of drones that has been spotted searching the night skies over Colorado. Local media reported Monday that at least 17 drones with an estimated wingspan of six feet have been seen hovering 200 to 300 feet over the skies of Yuma and Phillips counties. Local police don't know the origin of the aircraft, but do not believe they pose a threat. "They do not seem to be malicious. They don't seem to be doing anything that would indicate criminal activity," said Phillips County Sheriff Thomas Elliott to The Denver Post . "They've been doing a grid search, a grid pattern. They fly one square and then they fly another square." Authorities suspect the drones may have been deployed by an unknown private company. Mapping the area is one possible explanation

WYOMING SKY-SERPENTS Multiple UFO sightings described as snake-like, undulating  at high altitude are being reported yet again across the Northern United States. Some observers have taken to calling these UFO's Sky-Serpents.  buckrail.com reports from Wyoming: " The Cowboy State has been named specifically in a recent rash of  similarly-described Unidentified Flying Object[UFO] sightings across the United States. According to a report by KGAB AM650, month’s worth of UFO reports detail uniformly an elongated, serpent-like aerial phenomenon over a widespread area between Washington State and New York while listing the great State of Wyoming as a hot spot among the sightings. Officially first spotted in June over the Mojave Desert, the more recent high volume of sightings has caught the attention of international news outlets as well a spurred creative theorizing. Speculative voices wonder if the aerial objects might be balloons or kites, though both explanatio

UFO DATA DUMP Financial experts tell us to expect to see the largest transfer of wealth the world has ever known as the baby boomer generation passes on and distributes trillions in wealth to their heirs. Something similar can be seen in the UFO community as the likes of the late Stan Friedman and other luminaries leave behind literally truck-loads of UFO data from a lifetime of investigations. From vice.com we learn of one such case:  "The University of Manitoba has acquired thousands of documents, many of which relate to the infamous "Falcon Lake" case. The frozen prairies of Canada have always been home to strange events and mysterious encounters. So it’s perhaps appropriate that the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg has just accepted a large donation of documents from a prolific UFO researcher confirming the province’s “unnatural history.” Science writer and researcher Chris Rutkowski is a Canadian legend. Undoubtedly the country’s most prolific re
