UFO researchers uncover evidence
of U. S. Government’s cover-up
By John Payne
Staff Reporter
The United States Government
has had knowledge of alien
life forms for more than 40
years, according to a Lincoln UFO
researcher.
Brian Williams, who has been
studying UFO sightings and other
unexplained phenomena since 1972,
believes that a “government within
the government” also is trading
human lives in exchange for ad
vanced technology from extrater
restrials.
William’s beliefs are supported
by a Las Vegas television station’s
cover story about UFOs that aired
last November. The reports, gath
ered by KI.AS newsman George
Knapp, suggest that military testing
of alien spacecraft is occurring on
government land in the remote area
of Nevada desert west of Las Vegas

assigned to investigate UFO sight

talked to a man who claimed to
have worked at another military
test sight adjacent to “Area 51.”
