8NewsNow.com – Cattle mutilations have been recorded in all 50 states, but no one’s ever been caught. Now they’re happening in Nevada again, and no one seems to know why.
More than 10,000 of these mutilations have been reported on ranches all over the country. It’s a felony in many states, yet there’s never been an arrest, yet alone a conviction. The mystery mutilators are back in action in northern Nevada, and lawmen there — as elsewhere — are completely stumped.
Nevada is still cattle country, with more than 500,000 head scattered over the vast rangelands of the state. Even in southern counties, it’s not unusual to see scenes reminiscent of a John Ford western. But when the sun goes down, death comes calling.
Seven times in the past few years, someone or something has crept into the fields of this ranch near Battle Mountain and has carved up cattle with surgical precision.
Lander county lawmen are as baffled as their counterparts around the country. They have few clues, no motive and no suspects.
“It could be considered rustling, which is a felony,” says Lander County Deputy Sgt. Keith Altemueller. “There’s no evidence I have of what happened, how it happened or who did it. There are no tracks, no sign of disturbance and generally no blood. The cuts are very sharp — very unusual! I’ve lived in the desert all my life; I’ve seen what predators do. This is not what predators do.”
Former state Sen. Floyd Lamb has been ranching in nearby Lincoln County for most of his life. Twice his prize bulls have been taken, cut up and dumped by unknown perpetrators. Several of his neighbors have also been victimized.
“That’s a crazy thing,” Lamb says. “I don’t know what it is — take a bull; cut him up; dissect him. I don’t understand that. Some kook.”
A kook who can immobilize large animals without making any noise, slice them up, drain them of blood, leave no tracks, then disappear. Nevada cases date back at least to the ’70s.

NM officer who investigated cattle mutilation, underground bases passes
See video with Gabe Valdez, who was a former New Mexico state patrol officer in charge of the Dulce, New Mexico area. During his tenure, beginning in the 1970’s, he was tasked with investigating mysterious cattle mutilations. After years of research he concluded that a clandestine government agency was responsible and that they used secret underground bases in the Dulce area for their experiments. Valdez passed away on August 7, 2011 in his sleep at his home in Albuquerque.

************************************************
One of the documents that has received some attention in the latest release of UFO files by the British Ministry of Defence (MOD) is a long letter written in 1994 by Ralph Noyes, who headed Defense Secretariat 8 (DS8) in the early seventies, to Secretariat (Air Staff) 2a, in charge of UFO reports at the Ministry. The recipient’s name is censored but given the time frame it must be Nick Pope, who would later become one of ufology’s superstars. The letter discusses a number of UFO issues and attitudes going all the way back to 1952 and it’s not the only time that Noyes, who retired from the Ministry in 1977 with the rank of Under Secretary of State, would cross paths and sometimes criticize his former employer. This was particularly the case when both Noyes and former Admiral of the Fleet Lord Peter Hill-Norton challenged the MOD’s public stance that the famous December 1980 Rendlesham Forest UFO incident was of “no defence interest.”
Who was Ralph Noyes?
Ralph Noyes passed away in 1998, but I still remember vividly a fascinating informal meeting of ufologists that took place at his flat in London during a visit to the UK in December 1991. Among those present were Timothy Good, who had reported some of Noyes’s revelations in his bestseller Above Top Secret, John Michell, the great Fortean author and longtime friend of Noyes, and a visiting Russian ufologist called Nikolai Lebedev, who was writing for Tim Good’s The UFO Report series of books. Much of the conversation dealt with crop circles, which were then becoming a major sociological phenomenon in England. Noyes himself was quite involved in that mystery, earlier that year editing The Crop Circle Enigma, one of the first books on the topic.
Noyes published in 1985 a novel titled A Secret Property, which was a spy thriller dealing with UFOs and inspired by the Rendlesham affair, as he himself acknowledged it in the book’s Afterword. The jacket provided a lengthy biographical profile of the author:
Ralph Noyes was born in the tropics and spent most of his childhood in the West Indies. He served in the RAF from 1940 to 1946 and was commissioned as aircrew, engaging in active service in North Africa and the Far East. He entered the civil service in 1949 and served in the Air Ministry and subsequently the unified Ministry of Defence. In 1977 he retired early from the civil service to take up a writing career, leaving in the grade of Under Secretary of State. He has since published several pieces of shorter fiction, most of them on speculative themes.
For nearly four years, until late 1972, Ralph Noyes headed a division in the central staffs of the Ministry of Defence which brought him in touch with the UFO problem. Since his retirement he has become increasingly interested in the subject, among others which lie on the fringes of present understanding. He sees speculative fiction as the ideal mode for grappling with these unusual areas of experience. But A SECRET PROPERTY is not only fiction but also ‘faction’ – at least to the extent of drawing on Ralph Noyes’s lengthy background in the Royal Air Force and the Ministry of Defence.
The MOD letter
Besides the 3-page letter by Noyes to Secretariat (Air Staff) 2a, dated January 25, 1994, outlining all the experiences in his official career which involved the UFO issue, the latest release of MOD files also includes the following attachments: “Ralph Noyes Speaks,” a lengthy transcript of an interview published in the British newsletter UFO Brigantia in May 1991; “The Majestical Mystery Tour,” an article by Noyes about his experiences at MOD published in 1988 in the British ufological publication Magonia; and a long letter by Noyes, “Some Properties of the Ministry of Defence,” published in the Fortean Times also in 1988. All these pieces cover basically the same territory, but there is one paragraph at the end of the Brigantia article worth citing, as it conveys perfectly the problem that many officials face —in Britain and elsewhere—when dealing with the UFO issue in the course of their careers. Ralph Noyes says:
It is only since I left the MOD (in 1977) that I have seriously tried to consider what may possibly lie behind the “UFO phenomenon”. It was impossible to discuss it seriously within the Department: I would merely have “rubbished” my working relationship with the RAF and scientific colleagues if I had disclosed the interest I felt in the better reports which reached us. What I retain from my MOD experience – greatly reinforced by much that I have since read – is that the “phenomenon” is veridical and important, and that the expert methodology developed over the past century by scholarly people in the field of the so-called “paranormal” may possibly be relevant… All I can be quite sure of is that we, in ufology, are dealing with transient and somewhat insubstantial events of a bizarre character, and that we are not alone in doing so. I think they matter. I also think that we and the “parapsychologists” might have some useful exchanges.
Back to the 1994 letter to Secretariat (Air Staff) 2a, we reproduce it in full because of its important testimony regarding various events and attitudes that took place during Ralph Noyes’s long career at the Ministry. It all started in 1952 when he was the Private Secretary to the Vice Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sir Ralph Cochrane. British authorities seemed concerned with the flying saucer wave in the United States and particularly over Washington, DC in the summer of 1952, and this went all the way to the top to Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill. However, wrote Noyes, “the PM was advised that there was nothing in the ‘UFO nonsense’,” and the relevant files dealing with this matter have been released in previous MOD batches. The letter then mentions “the Bentwaters/Lakenheath events of August 1956, the events at West Freugh in the following year , and other subsequent events,” all of which “suggested to some of us that a ‘UFO phenomenon’ of some kind or other certainly existed.”
Noyes’s career went on and in 1969 he was appointed head of DS8, which included in part “the responsibility of responding to the public (including, of course, UFO groups) on unidentified objects which had been seen in the sky.” A little later comes the key paragraph dealing with an event which has elicited some attention over the years since it was first published in Tim Good’s Above Top Secret. Sometime in 1970, he writes, “a small party of us were invited by (I think) the then D. of Ops (AD) to view some photographic material in the sub-ground cinema during the lunch break… We were shown some slides, purportedly from aerial photographs taken by air crew. The highlight was a couple of brief clips of what I understand to be gun-camera material obtained as far back as 1956.”
Although Noyes clarified that the footage was “on the whole unimpressive,” the fact that such a screening even took place is rather interesting. He provides some additional details and comparisons to other footage from civilian sources like that obtained in Norway’s Hessdalen Valley or by Dr. Harley Rutledge in the American Ozarks, noting that “the evidence for the persistence of an odd phenomenon (occasionally with very strange effects) is abundant in the serious ufological literature.” Noyes then concludes the section about footage with this interesting observation:
That said, I can’t help feeling that there must be at least a scattering of good photographic material of unusual aerial objects obtained by the RAF over the years, perhaps backed by radar evidence. This could be of scientific value if released for outside study. Moreover, as I’ve suggested above, the mere fact that a government department was known to be adopting a non-dismissive attitude to these unusual phenomena might assist in getting the resources for serious research (eg. in the universities) which the ufological groups are unlikely to succeed in obtaining for themselves.
Here is the full letter by Ralph Noyes.
The files also include the January 27, 1994 response by Secretariat (Air Staff) 2a—almost surely our friend Nick Pope (the name has been censored)—to Ralph Noyes, in which he writes:
I was interested to hear the background to the gun-camera film saga, together with the more general insight that you gave me into policy and attitudes in previous years. The recent enquiries about the gun-camera footage presented me with a useful opportunity to look, more generally, into the whole question of what film and photographic evidence we might have built up over the years. It was unfortunate that this search failed to turn up any such material, but at least we can now say that we had a very thorough look.
This poses an interesting conundrum that has parallel stories in the U.S. and other countries as well. Here we have an MOD official making an in-house official inquiry for footage that was known to have existed some 20 years earlier, since the testimony of Ralph Noyes is absolutely trustworthy. And yet…nothing shows up, it’s as if the material—particularly when dealing with things like photographic or physical evidence—just vanished into the twilight zone! If the material existed at one time, it has to be stored somewhere since it’s very unlikely that it would just be destroyed. But where? There is not a good answer for this particular problem unless you consider a super-secret group within the governments that just scoops up these kinds of evidences, a group that is beyond the reach of normal government officials and freedom of information laws.
Noyes and the Rendlesham affair
Lord David Alton, former MP from Liverpool and current member of the House of Lords (image credit: http://davidalton.net/)
Previous releases of MOD UFO files dealing with the famous 1980 Rendlesham affair included the efforts by David Alton, a Member of Parliament for Liverpool Moseley Hill from the Liberal Party who is currently a member of the House of Lords, to get to the bottom of this mysterious incident involving both the British and American military. Alton wrote in May 1985 to then Minister of Defence Michael Heseltine, enclosing a letter he received from Ralph Noyes about this matter, adding that “it seems to me that the points he raises are quite reasonable and merit a reply.” Alton and everybody else who inquired with MOD about this incident received the Ministry’s standard reply that the Rendlesham case was “of no defence significance.” Noyes thought this line just didn’t make sense if one considered the facts about this case.
I quoted briefly from the letter written on May 14, 1985 by Ralph Noyes to MP David Alton in the cover story about “The Rendlesham Forest Incident” published on issue 4 of Open Minds magazine in October/November 2010, in which he calls it a “puzzling and disquieting case.” The main gist of Noyes’s letter is his challenge to Lord Trefgarne, then serving as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at MOD and a member of the House of Lords, that Rendlesham was of “no Defence interest.” Noyes wrote:
I cannot accept Lord Trefgarne’s view that there is no Defence interest in this case. Unless Lt. Col. Halt was out of his mind, there is clear evidence in his report that British airspace and territory were intruded upon by an unidentified vehicle on two occasions in late December 1980 and that no authority was able to prevent this. If, on the other hand, Halt’s report cannot be believed, there is equally clear evidence of a serious misjudgement of events by USAF personnel at an important base in British territory. Either way, the case can hardly be without Defence significance.
You can view the 2-page Noyes letter in full so that you can see all the arguments and issues he raises:
Ralph Noyes revisited the Rendlesham case in detail in a long essay published in The UFO Report 1990, a book edited by Timothy Good. The title of his piece, “UFO lands in Suffolk – and that’s Official!” is the same headline of the famous front page story published in October 1983 in the now-defunct British tabloid News of the World. That story introduced this case to the public, publishing for the first time the contents of the now famous January 13, 1981 memo on “Unexplained Lights,” written by Bentwaters Deputy Base Commander, Lt. Col. Charles Halt to the MOD. Noyes analyzed in detail the Rendlesham affair in his essay, concluding the case was certainly real and making the following observation towards the end of the piece:
The Rendlesham case also confirms, at least for me, that governments and their official agencies are undoubtedly engaged in concealment and obfuscation – but that the cover-up is of ignorance and unease. (This was certainly the game which I felt it necessary to play, myself, during my own term as an official of the Ministry of Defence from 1949 to 1977.)
Noyes also dealt with both the Rendlesham case and other factual details of ufology in the Afterword of his 1985 novel A Secret Property, where he wrote:
The RAF Woodbridge case of December 1980 strikes me as one of the most interesting and important of recent years, anyway in this country – perhaps the most significant military sighting (or supposed sighting) since the celebrated events of 13/14 August 1956 near RAF Bentwaters and Lakenheath (both of which, are by an entertaining coincidence, quite close to Woodbridge in that much haunted county of Suffolk).
For an updated view of what happened at the Rendlesham Forest, you can consult the lecture given earlier this year.by retired Col. Halt at the International UFO Congress.

Lights Over Del Valle
MUFON Case # 30322
Date: 2011-07-24
Time: 02:30
City: Del Valle
State: Texas
Shape: Flash,Other,Unknown
Distance: One mile or less
Summary: two lights hovering and then shot off
Report:
I was on my way home from work at around 2:30am on highway 71. I was traveling at about 65-70mph going north(towards Del Valle). Two blue-ish lights appeared from under the slight cloud cover. The lights hovered for maybe a second or two and abruptly shot off in the distance and the lights went out. I live pretty close to the austin airport, but the planes they use don’t normally perform such intense moves. I thought it may have been a meteor or a shooting star perhaps but was quick to reject the ideas since the lights were under the cloud cover and shooting stars and meteors fall. These lights shot in a straight line. The two lights may have been attached to one single object since they did not move apart/away from each other, they were constantly perpindicular with each other throughout my brief sighting. I suspect that the object/craft may have been a boomerang shape with a rather sharp angle in the middle, something like >
I can not be exact on this idea since it was dark and the angle in which I had witnessed the event. There are a lot of variables but I haven’t seen anything like it.

Cone Shaped Object Lands or Crashes Near Coahoma, TX
MUFON Case # 30344
Date: 2011-07-25
Time: 21:28
City: Coahoma
State: Texas
Shape: Cone
Duration: 00:00:10
Distance: Over one mile
Location: Farmland
Terrain: Fields
Visibility: Clear
Weather: None
Vallee Index: AN1
Summary: speeding across the sky angled downwards and then disappeared
Report:
My mom and I were driving east in the country when we saw a bright light streaking across the sky. We both exclaimed that it looked like it was angled towards the ground and would crash. We thought it might be an airplane, but it was shaped like a cone with red lights at the point in front and yellow in back. It was very fast and we watched it for less than 10 seconds. As it got closer to the ground we became alarmed that it was crashing but then it disappeared. We pulled over and got out of the jeep to see if it would reappear or to see if it crashed, but it never reappeared. We were a little creeped out at the sudden way it disappeared. It was very close to the ground, which is why we thought at first that it was an airplane landing. But there are no airports around the area and it was going way too fast. We heard no noise while in the jeep or when we got out.
