Case · UFO Afrinews No 14, July 1996
Cash-Landrum case, from the review of Schuessler's UAP-Related Human Physiological Effects
1980 ยท road to Houston, Texas, United States
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
Recommending John Schuessler's 1996 book on physiological effects, Hind summarises the case he investigated. Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum and Vickie's grandson, returning home from work, pulled up on the road to Houston to watch an unidentified craft struggling desperately to stay airborne in front of them. Both women got out of the car, but Vickie went back when the terrified boy cowered under the dashboard. Betty took such a heavy dose of radiation that she nearly died and has had cancer ever since. All three saw what they took for about 23 Air Force helicopters ringing the craft as though guarding it while it fought to keep height; it later seemed to recover and flew off. Hind prints the year as 1973; the event is generally dated 29 December 1980. Schuessler and Bob Pratt, a friend of Hind's, wrote a book on it that never found a publisher.
What Hind made of it
Hind has heard Schuessler speak and vouches for the genuineness of his research and the excellence of the book.
