What happens when the people reporting UFO encounters are trained observers whose careers depend on getting the details right? British police inspector Roy Teague joins me to discuss his book Close Encounters of the Police Kind and the remarkable accounts he has collected from hundreds of police officers. We talk about why serving officers are often reluctant to come forward, the stigma that still surrounds the subject, and why Roy believes law enforcement witnesses can bring a uniquely valuable perspective to the UAP mystery.
Roy also shares several extraordinary cases, including police helicopter crews encountering unexplained craft over London, officers reporting missing time after a massive triangular object passed overhead, and a bizarre glowing object that appeared to follow a police car before interfering with its radios. We get into alleged abductions, the so-called hitchhiker effect, encounters that seemed strangely aware of the witnesses, and how years of interviewing officers transformed Roy from a skeptic into someone convinced that something very real and very unusual is happening in our skies.
