Linda Cortile and the two UN security guards (from Witnessed)

New York; a 12th-storey apartment window and a New York beach, United Nations headquarters, 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

Hind digresses to Hopkins' book Witnessed while weighing the bond between Jeff and Cathy. Linda Cortile was allegedly seen by two security men, then guarding UN Secretary-General Perez de Cuellar, as she was taken through a twelfth-storey window into a craft. The guards called themselves Richard and Dan, obviously pseudonyms. Dan later followed Linda, tried to kidnap her and on a New York beach tried to drown her; he was found to be mentally disturbed and has since vanished without trace. Richard fell in love with her, said they had been bound together since childhood when he knew her as 'Baby Ann', and had met her in dreams over many years. Hind asks whether Dan was removed by human hands or by the entities.

What Hind made of it

Hind uses it to suggest entities may arrange lifelong links between experiencers, and wonders whether Dan was 'done away with' by humans or the entities.

In their words

  • was he 'done away with' by human intervention, or did the entities have a hand in this?
