1
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: Navajo County Deputy Sheriff Chuck Ellison was sitting down to

2
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 1: eat dinner with his wife when the telephone rang. The

3
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: voice on the other end was hard to read, both

4
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 1: frantic and oddly hesitant at the same time. Ellison asked

5
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: the caller to calm down and start again by telling

6
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: him who he was. It was Kenny Peterson, came the

7
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: speedy reply, and they needed the police right away. As

8
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: Peterson went on to explain, he and his Forestry Service

9
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: co workers had been clearing a section of Arizona's Apache

10
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: Sitgreave's forest earlier that night when something inexplicable had occurred,

11
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 1: and now one of their crew was missing. But when

12
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: Ellison pushed for more details, Peterson paused for a moment

13
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: before replying that perhaps it would be better if they

14
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: could explain it to him in person. Ten minutes later,

15
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: after apologizing to his wife for having to leave so suddenly,

16
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: Ellison pulled into the parking lot of Wilbur's Market shopping

17
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: center in Haber, a small junction town about one hundred

18
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: and fifty miles northeast of Phoenix, Arizona, where he'd agreed

19
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 1: to meet Kenny. It didn't take long for the deputy

20
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: to spot the man at His colleagues, Mike Rodgers, John Goulette,

21
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: Alan Dallas, Dwayne Smith, and Steve Pearce all gathered together

22
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 1: in an anxious huddle by the entrance, still covered in

23
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: dust and debris from the day's shift. At least two

24
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: of the group was struggling to hold back tears. In

25
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: no mood to mess around, Ellison asked the men to

26
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: explain exactly what was going on. They all looked sheepishly

27
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: toward each each other, as if they didn't quite know

28
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: what they were going to say to him, until finally

29
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: Mike began to speak. The twenty eight year old Mike

30
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 1: was an independent contractor and the crew were his responsibility,

31
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: so too, ultimately was the man who was missing. His

32
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: name was Travis Walton, who also happened to be Mike's

33
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: best friend. Ordinarily, they would never have left him behind

34
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: up there in the forest, but as Mike tried to

35
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: explain to Ellison, these were far from ordinary circumstances. You're

36
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: listening to unexplained and I'm Richard McClain Smith, like the

37
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: rest of Mike Roger's crew. Twenty two year old Travis

38
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: Walton lived in Snowflake, a farming town located about thirty

39
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: miles east of Haber with a population of just over

40
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: two and a half thousand. It was founded by Mormon

41
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: settlers in eighteen seventy eight and was comprised largely of

42
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: low rise houses and small local stores, all overshadowed by

43
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: the huge red bricked Church of Jesus Christ of Latter

44
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: day Saints that dominated the town square. Delinquency was not

45
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: looked on lightly by the community, nor was any one

46
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: who deigned to be a little different. Back in nineteen

47
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: seventy one, Travis, who with his long hair was dismissed

48
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: by many as a feckless hippy, and a friend were

49
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: convicted of forging payroll checks from a local company. The

50
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: pair were given two years privation and forced to pay

51
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: the money back. In a town as small and god

52
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: fearing as Snowflake, such reputations were hard to shake. Those

53
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: who knew Travis, however, knew a different story. Some of

54
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: his school teachers even considered him one of the smartest

55
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: pupils that they'd ever taught. After dropping out of Northern

56
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: Arizona University a few years previously, Travis had been picking

57
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: up work wherever he could find it. When Mike Rogers,

58
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: a forestry contractor with nine years experience, procured another of

59
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: his United States Forest Service contracts, Travis jumped at the

60
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: opportunity to join the team. The job was to clear

61
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: one thousand, two hundred and seventy seven acres of thick

62
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: scrub brush from a section of the Apache Si Grieves

63
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: National Forest known as Turkey Springs, which was about ten

64
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,159
Speaker 1: miles into the pine covered mountains just to the west

65
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: of Haber. That Wednesday, November fifth, started out just like

66
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: any other day, as one by one Rogers collected each

67
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: of his crew members in his battered Crew Cab International

68
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: from their homes in Snowflake, then headed off on their

69
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: forty mile journey into the mountains. With it being November,

70
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: there was always a slight chill in the air first

71
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: thing in the morning, but it soon heated up when

72
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: the sun came out. Though the work was arduous, cutting

73
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: back all new growth less than six inches in diameter

74
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: and gathering it up into great slash piles, Travis never

75
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: tired of being up there on that mountain ridge with

76
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: the fresh air in his lungs, wild horses galloping through

77
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: the trees all around them, and that ancient forest stretching

78
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: out below, older than the people whose name it took,

79
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:53,799
Speaker 1: older even than God themselves. Hours later, with darkness returning,

80
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: and so too that light chill in the air, the

81
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: men called it a day. Gathering their tools, they slung

82
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: them into the back of Mike's truck before piling in themselves,

83
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 1: Travis and Kenny up front with Mike, while the others,

84
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: all smokers, sat in the back, gleefully lighting up. Mike

85
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: switched on the engine, bathing the narrow forest road ahead

86
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: in the light of the head lamps, and eased out

87
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: of the clearing. They'd barely made it two hundred yards

88
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: along the rugged forest track when Alleyn broke in from

89
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: the back. Hey, what is that, he said, pointing toward

90
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: a soft glowing light coming from out of the trees

91
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: to the right. Have you guys never seen the moon?

92
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 1: Mocked Kenny, only as the others were quick to point

93
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: out the moon was already sitting high in the sky

94
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: above on the other side of the truck. The soft

95
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 1: white glow grew brighter as they continued on, slowly edging

96
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: ever closer toward it, now no more than a hundred

97
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: yards from its source. The light bled out across the

98
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: road before them, but frustratingly, whatever it was remained obscured

99
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: by the trees until eventually they reached a clearing and

100
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: they were finally able to see it, a large disc

101
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,559
Speaker 1: like structure roughly twenty feet wide and eight feet high,

102
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: hovering a good fifteen feet above the ground. It was

103
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: so close they could even see the detail on its surface,

104
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: how it was divided into a series of thin panels

105
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: with a thin, darker band that seemed to circle all

106
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: the way around it, and how its glow appeared to

107
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: be coming from inside. Before Mike had even brought the

108
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: truck to a stop, the side door was opened and

109
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: Travis was gone, hurrying off toward it. The others yelled

110
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: for him to back, but Travis just kept on going,

111
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: edging closer and closer toward it. Then came a strange

112
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: noise that seemed to emanate from the craft, high pitched

113
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: at first, before steadily shifting into something much lower, like

114
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: a vast turbine engine. When suddenly a blinding blue light

115
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: shot out from the disk, holding Travis in some kind

116
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: of grip, with his body now completely rigid. He was

117
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: slowly lifted a good foot into the air and suspended

118
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: there for a moment before being flung hard onto the ground,

119
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: skidding shoulder first into the stone and dirt, and there

120
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:49,839
Speaker 1: he lay completely still. That was enough for Rogers, who,

121
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: with four kids of his own and the rest of

122
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: his crew to worry about, turned the key and tore

123
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: out of the clearing as fast as the truck could go,

124
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: And then they were racing through the trees, bouncing over

125
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: the dirt track at speed as Rogers did his best

126
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: to keep the thing on the road, with the rest

127
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: of the crew screaming for him to keep going faster

128
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: and faster, until it was just one bend too many,

129
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: With a huge pine tree looming up before him, Rogers

130
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: pulled hard on the wheel and brought the truck slamming

131
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: into a pile of bulldoze dirt by the side of

132
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: the road. The men looked frantically about for any sign

133
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: of the strange craft, but saw nothing but the frigid

134
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: dark and the bright half moon above. And for a

135
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: moment there was silence, and then all hell broke loose.

136
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: We've got to go back, yelled Kenny. No way, said Steve,

137
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: as tears streamed down his face. We've got to get

138
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: out of here, Kenny's right, said Mike, wiping his eyes

139
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,079
Speaker 1: with the back of his hand. Only then had it

140
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: dawned on him that, without even thinking, he'd abandoned his

141
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: best friend alone out there with that thing, whatever it was.

142
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: We're going back, he said. Finally, you can either come

143
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: with me or you can wait for me here. With

144
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: no one willing to take their chances in the forest alone,

145
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: they headed back to look for Travis, but by the

146
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: time they got to where they'd last seen him, he

147
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: was gone. And that, as he finished explaining to an

148
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: utterly perplexed Deputy Ellison, was when they decided to call

149
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: the police. After hearing the men's story, Deputy Ellison reluctantly

150
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: relayed it back to Sheriff Marlin Gillespie at the Navajo

151
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: County Sheriff's office in Holbrook, another forty mile drive north

152
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: of Haber. Though Ellison was quick to clarify that he

153
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: didn't believe any of it, he had little doubt the

154
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: men had experienced something traumatic. Less than an hour later,

155
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: Sheriff Gillespie arrived with Deputy Kenneth Coplin in tow and

156
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: Mike's crew repeated their extraordinary story for the second time

157
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: that night, but Mike was getting impatient. They needed to

158
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: get back up there and search for Travis. Kenny and

159
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: Allan were keen to join, but by then Ball, John, Dwayne,

160
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 1: and Steve, who at seventeen was the youngest of the group,

161
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: wanted to do was go home. Taking Mike's truck, they

162
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 1: headed back to his house to let his wife know

163
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: what had happened, while the remaining three joined the sheriff

164
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: and his two deputies and headed back toward Turkey Springs.

165
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: It took a while to find the exact spot again,

166
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: but soon the men were out in the cold air,

167
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: flashlights in hand as they scoured the ground for any

168
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: sign of Travis. But the men found nothing. No scarred

169
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: or broken trees other than the ones the team had

170
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: cut down, no scuff marks in the dirt, no sign

171
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: of Travis's bootmarkings. Neither did they find any pieces of

172
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: clothing or any blood for that matter. It was almost

173
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: as if no one had ever been there at all.

174
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: All that was clear was that Travis was gone. Sheriff

175
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: Gillespie ey'd Mike and his men with suspicion Clearly Travis

176
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: hadn't been abducted by a UFO, so what then exactly

177
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: had taken place and if he was still alive out

178
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: here as the men claimed he might be. It was

179
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 1: an awfully cold night to only be wearing plaid and denim.

180
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: Ellison notified more deputies and members of a local volunteer

181
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: organization to join in the search, but by midnight there

182
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: was still no sign of the missing man. Growing increasingly desperate,

183
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: rogers suggested it was time they notified Travis's mother. At

184
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: fifty seven years old, Mary Kellett had raised Travis and

185
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: his five siblings on her own after making a living

186
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: running a boarding house in Phoenix. By nineteen seventy five,

187
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: she divided her time between her home in Snowflake and

188
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: a cabin in Bare Springs, a stretch of woodland a

189
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: good ten miles to the southeast of Haber. It was funny,

190
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: she thought, as she watched Deputy Copland's car pulling up

191
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: outside the cabin. Just earlier in the day, she'd been

192
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: overcome with the strange conviction that something terrible had happened

193
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: to her son, Travis, when Mike stepped out of the

194
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: vehicle whom she knew well a good friend of Travis's.

195
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:08,719
Speaker 1: Her worst fears were confirmed. Once inside, Coplin watched as

196
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: a clearly distraught Rogers explained to Mary about what they'd

197
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: seen that evening and how Travis had disappeared. It was odd,

198
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: thought Copland, how calm Mary seemed to be in the

199
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: face of such unusual and disturbing news, almost as if

200
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: it wasn't news to her at all. About an hour later,

201
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: Coplin made his goodbyes and headed back to Sheriff Gillespie

202
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: to report his findings. In the meantime, Rogers drove Mary

203
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: in her car to her daughter Alison's home in Taylor,

204
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: a town just south of Snowflake. Alison, who lived with

205
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: her husband Grant Nef, was especially close to Travis and

206
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: was understandably devastated to hear the news. Skeptical of the story, however,

207
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: she demanded to hear again from Mike exactly what had happened,

208
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: but he could only tell her what he knew. A

209
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: few hours later, unable to wait any longer, Mary called

210
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: her son Dwayne at his home in Phoenix to give

211
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 1: him the worrying news. Though Dwayne was Mary's second oldest son,

212
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: she'd always considered him the most mature, and it was

213
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: often to him that she first turned in times of stress.

214
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: Minutes later, Dwayne jumped into his car and started out

215
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: on the two hundred mile journey to Snowflake to meet

216
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: up with the others. Are you always taking care of

217
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: your family? Do you often take care of others and

218
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: not yourself? Now it's time to take care of yourself,

219

233
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: eight am the morning after Travis's disappearance, a number of

234
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: search teams assembled in Turkey Springs to assist the Navajo

235
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: County and Silver Creek Sheriff's officers in their continued search

236
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: for the missing man. Among them were a group of

237
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: US Forest Service personnel drafted in for their knowledge of

238
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: the local area. Mike Rodgers, Kenny Peterson, and Alan Dallas

239
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: were back too to help with the search. That morning,

240
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: the thirty or so search team, starting from the point

241
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: that Travis was last seen, began the laborious task of

242
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 1: scouring the forest for any sign of him, a search

243
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: that would eventually encompass a region of roughly a mile squared.

244
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: As the forestry workers scoured the area for any sign

245
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: of unusually broken trees or foot markings, it was hard

246
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: to ignore just how dry the whole area was, with

247
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: some of the dead brush piles being almost a year

248
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: old and the floor carpeted in dry pine needles. Though

249
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 1: no one gave it much credence if some kind of

250
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: craft had indeed lifted off from around there, the whole

251
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: place would have gone up in flames elsewhere, Sheriff Gillespie

252
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: and Deputy Ellison were looking for something a little different,

253
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: Trying to square the obvious distress shown by Mike and

254
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: his crew the previous night with the ridiculous cock and

255
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 1: bull story they had given them. Gillespie and Ellison had

256
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: got to thinking could it be whether it was premeditated

257
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: or the result of a tragic accident That the men

258
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: knew only too well where Travis was, after all, because

259
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: they had buried his body. As the two police kept

260
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: one eye on the men for any sign of suspicious activity,

261
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: their other was kept firmly on the ground, looking for

262
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: any sign of recently disturbed earth or fresh piles of

263
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 1: dirt and of course blood. Later that afternoon, Mary and

264
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: Dwayne also joined the search, with May seeming once again

265
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: far too calm for Deputy Copland's liking. By the afternoon, however,

266
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: the search teams were yet to find anything. With little

267
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: else to go on, Sheriff Gillespie suggested contacting the nearest

268
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 1: firewatch tower. Perhaps they had seen something that night. At

269
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: the very least, it would end all the ridiculous talk

270
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: about UFOs. Sadly, however, the guards stationed at the tower

271
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 1: only a few miles to the west, had gone off

272
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: duty at five PM. The search continued the next day,

273
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: this time with the help of search dogs from Arizona

274
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 1: State Prison, but still no evidence of Travis's whereabouts or

275
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 1: any sign that any unidentified flying object had been in

276
00:19:51,920 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: the vicinity was found. On Saturday morning, Gillespie was back

277
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: in his office in Holbrook when a kafuffle was heard

278
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: in the reception running through. He was startled to find

279
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: Dwayne and Mike Roger's demanding to know why no one

280
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: was up on the ridge looking for Travis. The pair

281
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: had gone out to join the third day of the search,

282
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: only to find nobody there. Having begun to suspect that

283
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: some kind of hoax was being played out, Gillespie was

284
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: somewhat taken aback by the evident concern and passion in

285
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: Dwaine and Mike's demand. Within an hour, the search was reinstated,

286
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: with horses, jeeps, and a rescue helicopter brought in for

287
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 1: good measure, having flown in helicopters during his time in

288
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: the military. That afternoon, Dwane joined the helicopter crew in

289
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: the air, peering down at the gaps in between the

290
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: trees for any sign of his brother. He couldn't decide

291
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: whether to be worried or relieved when by the end

292
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: of the day they'd once again failed to find anything.

293
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 1: Back in Snowflake, a Volkswagen van pulled into the town

294
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: square to join the throng of news vans and other

295
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: unfamiliar vehicles that had been steadily descending on the town.

296
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: By then, news of Travis's disappearance and the unusual explanation

297
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: behind it had spread far and wide, with many journalists

298
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: and UFO enthusiasts keen to investigate the wild story for themselves.

299
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: One such enthusiast was Fred Sylvanus from Phoenix, who for

300
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: the past twenty years had conducted field research for the

301
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: Arizona Regional UFO Project. That afternoon, Fred was put in

302
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: touch with Mike and Dwain, who agreed to join him

303
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 1: in his van for an interview. Mike began with an

304
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: account of the craft they'd seen, how pretty it had been,

305
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: like a fancy new car, he said, and how he'd

306
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: been almost mesmerized by just how beautiful a thing it

307
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: was to look at. Then Dwain chimed in with something unexpected.

308
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: He had also seen one almost identical to what might

309
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: described in Broad Daylight twelve years before. Not only that

310
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 1: he and Travis had discussed UFOs at great length and

311
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: what they would do if they ever got close to one,

312
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: which was what asked Fred, they would try to establish

313
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: contact with it. Of course, came Dwaine's reply. It was

314
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: an alarming admission to Sylvanus, since he was previously under

315
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: the impression that none of the men involved had any

316
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: prior interest in UFOs. In his experienced opinion, evidence of

317
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: such interest was often a red flag where stories of

318
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: apparent sightings and abductions were concerned. And then came another

319
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: troubling revelation, this time from Mike. As it turned out

320
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: he and his crew were wildly behind schedule on their contract.

321
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: Having already received one extension, the crew were struggling to

322
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: meet their second deadline, as Mike let slip to Sylvanus,

323
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: perhaps with all that had been going on, the Forestry

324
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: Service might be willing to offer them a second extension.

325
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: There was just one final question, said Sylvanus, before wrapping up.

326
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: Where did the pair think that Travis was now? Wherever

327
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: he is, said Dwayne. It is not on this earth.

328
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: Many in the town had been uttering it among themselves,

329
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: but it was Snowflake Town Marshall Sandford Flake who said

330
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: it the loudest that all this talk of UFOs and

331
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: Travis Walton being abducted was complete rubbish. Some put this

332
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: down to an ongoing grudge with Travis due to a

333
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: disagreement from a previous year, but either way, Flake was

334
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: determined to put an end to the nonsense. Having deduced

335
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 1: that Travis had orchestrated the whole thing in collaboration with

336
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: his brother Dwayne, using some kind of balloon to fool

337
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,439
Speaker 1: his colleagues, Flake became convinced that he was merely hiding

338
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: out at his mother's cabin in bear Lake. In the

339
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: days since Travis's disappearance, Marshall Flake made a number of

340
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: unannounced visits to Mary Kellett's cabin, hoping to catch the

341
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: family out, one time, even bringing a documentary crew with

342
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 1: him from the United Kingdom, but Mary could only tell

343
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 1: him what she had told everyone else, that she had

344
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: no idea where her son was. Such rumors were becoming

345
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: a struggle for the rest of Mike's crew, who who

346
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: couldn't step outside their homes without being harassed by reporters

347
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: or neighbors telling them to give up the hoax and

348
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: tell the truth about what happened. On Monday morning, with

349
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: Travis now having been missing for five days, Mike Rodgers,

350
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: Kenny Peterson, John Goulette, Steve Pierce, Alan Dallas, and Dwayne

351
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,959
Speaker 1: Smith received an ominous request to assemble at Sheriff Gillespie's

352
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: office in Holbrook. The men arrived on the assumption that

353
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: they would be giving another statement about the events of

354
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: the previous Wednesday. What they found was something a little different.

355
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 1: Greeting them alongside Gillespie was Arizona Department of Public Safety

356
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: employee Si Gilson. Gilson also happened to be an expert

357
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: in polygraph testing, and he was there to give them

358
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: a lie detect a test. Steve Pierce went white at

359
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: the sheer mention of the device. It was just as

360
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,719
Speaker 1: his mother had been telling him. It didn't matter if

361
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 1: he had anything to do with Travis's disappearance. This was

362
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: how the law really worked. They were going to try

363
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: and pin something on him, and one way or another,

364
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: if Steve wasn't careful, he would not be leaving that

365
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: station anytime soon. Alan Dallas also grew suddenly nervous, a

366
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: reaction not lost on Sheriff Gillespie, as the Sheriff then

367
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 1: explained to them, since they had no evidence to back

368
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: up any of their claims, he'd been forced to take

369
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: drastic action. If they couldn't find Travis, at the very least,

370
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: he could dismiss their ridiculous story, and if they were

371
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: telling the truth, none of them had anything to worry

372
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: about anyway. Having been observing the men closely since they arrived,

373
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: Gilson was quick to pick out Steve, the younger and

374
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: clearly most anxious of the group, as a possible weak link.

375
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 1: If they had indeed concocted the whole thing up together,

376
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: it was Steve, he reasoned, that was most likely to

377
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: break Alone in the interview room, Gilson took a moment

378
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: to calibrate the equipment, then asked for Steve to be

379
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 1: sent in. After nervously taking a seat, Gilson proceeded to

380
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 1: connect Steve to the machine, pulling the wires tightly across

381
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: his chest, before asking him to sit up and try

382
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: his best to relax, And then, after switching on the machine,

383
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: Gilson began, did you cause Travis any serious physical harm?

384
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: Last Wednesday? Afternoon, asked Gilson, as the graft paper spoiled

385
00:27:54,720 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: out endlessly under the needles. No, said Steve, quickly, looking

386
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: anxiously towards the fragile arms of the machine as they

387
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: flickered lightly across the page. Gilson nodded to himself, then

388
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: jotted something down in his notebook. I'm not lying, said

389
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: Steve with quiet determination, Ignoring him. Gilson continued, do you

390
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 1: know if Travis Walton was physically injured by some other

391
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: member of your work crew last Wednesday? No, said Steve emphatically.

392
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: And then do you know if Travis Walton's body is

393
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: buried or hidden somewhere in the Turkey Springs area? No,

394
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: came Steve's emphatic reply. Again. Then, finally, did you tell

395
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: the truth about actually seeing a UFO last Wednesday when

396
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:56,479
Speaker 1: Travis Walton disappeared? Steve looked Gilson in the eye, and then,

397
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: after only a moment's pause, yes, he said. One after

398
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: the other, Mike's crew came and gave their answers to

399
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: the same set of questions, taking about twenty minutes at

400
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: a time as they went over and over it again,

401
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: all giving the exact same answers as Steve and not

402
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: once deviating from their story. No, they didn't harm Travis,

403
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: nor know of any one who did. And yes they

404
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: did see a UFO that night. At ten p m.

405
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: That evening, the men were sent home, after which Gilson

406
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: presented Gillespie with the results. The sheriff could only gorb

407
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: in amazement. According to Gilson, not one of the men,

408
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: with the exception of Allan Dallas, whose results were deemed void,

409
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: could be determined to have lied about their experience, or,

410
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: as Gilson understood it, going by the results, the chances

411
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: that all five had cheated the test was something in

412
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: the region of one in seventy eight thousand. As Gillespie

413
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: reported to the press soon after, there's no doubt they're

414
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: telling the truth right down the line. I feel sure

415
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: that all six of them saw a UFO. It was

416
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: close to midnight on Monday when the phone rang in

417
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: Allison and Grant Neff's home in Taylor. Having just gone

418
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: to bed, Grant roused himself awake and stumbled to the

419
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: receiver nef residence. Who's this, he muttered wearily. Then a

420
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: scared and faint voice crackled up from the other end

421
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: of the line. It's Travis. I'm in a phone booth

422
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: at the Heber gas station. I need help. Please come

423
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: and get me. Grant stood for a moment, trying to think.

424
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: It certainly didn't sound like Travis, and since the family

425
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: had been fielding crank calls ever since his disappearance, it

426
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: seems reasonable to assume that this was just another one.

427
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: Don't call here again, Grant said, But just as he

428
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: was about to hang up, the voice came back, more

429
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: desperate this time. Wait, Grant, it's me Please, I'm hurt

430
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: and I need your help. Please come and get me.
