The attendant facts failed to establish that the unidentified flying object or helicopters were owned and operated by the U.S.

government or any agency or instrumentality thereof.

The judge dismisses the case for a lack of evidence.

Now, especially in a case that involves a UFO claim, when the average person hears lack of evidence, there's a pretty good chance their mind hears it didn't happen or it's a hoax.

but that's not what the judge actually says.

You'll notice the decision never questions Betty or the Landrums' account of that night.

It doesn't question their pain or suffering.

It simply says there's not enough evidence that the UFO and helicopters belonged to the government, which, as I said, is a conclusion drawn largely from the government's findings.

So...

Let's take a closer look at that investigation.

George Saron says he called up every military base in Texas.

And just like with John's investigation, they all say they know nothing about the UFO or the helicopters.

And official military logs back up that statement.

Those logs were entered into evidence, and apparently there were no official flights scheduled in that area on December 29th, 1980.

except there's a pretty big asterisk on that statement.

Saron admits that his probe didn't include any classified records, which means he couldn't have ruled out the military, not entirely.

So it's possible it was a top secret operation.

And yet the judge in the case seems to just take Saron's word that it wasn't.

But get this, a report released by the US House Committee in 1983 showed that the military allocated a substantial sum of money for a classified project in October, 1980, just two months before the incident.

They set aside $11.5 million for it.
