The case of Gary Wilcox and his apparent encounter with alien occupants on his farm in Newark Valley, New York is one that would divide opinion in the UFO community. Much like the case does today.

so when was the police report filed? is it publicly available? Those are key questions here, since they either add a lot to the story, or have been ‘added’ but not verified. If he filed a report days after the Socorro incident, his case is not nearly as important compared to a filed report that afternoon. And why make a police report? did he want the aliens arrested? Maybe police were the ‘go to’ for anything you wanted to report, but since there were sympathetic UFO groups at that time, an afternoon call to a UFO group makes more sense than a police report. Weird case, either a great story-teller or April 24th was quite a day for UFO encounters.
I have had my own encounters of an extraordinary nature, which though reported on Davenport’s site and another on MUFON I remain anonymous due to the treatment that skeptics et.al give these accounts.
