Abduction case
One of the most intriguing and controversial cases of alien abduction is that of Linda Napolitano, also known as Linda Cortile. She claimed that she was abducted by grey aliens from her 12th floor apartment in Manhattan, New York, in the early morning of November 30, 1989. Her story was investigated by the renowned ufologist Budd Hopkins, who wrote a book about it titled "Witnessed: The True Story of the Brooklyn Bridge UFO Abductions".
According to Linda, she was asleep in her bedroom when she felt a blue light shining through the window. She saw three small beings with large heads and black eyes floating in the air. They grabbed her and lifted her out of the bed, passing through the closed window. She felt a pain in her chest and screamed for help. She saw a large disc-shaped craft hovering above the building and was taken inside it.
Linda said that she was examined by the aliens, who inserted a needle in her navel and performed other procedures on her. She also saw other human abductees in the craft, some of whom were familiar to her from previous encounters. She said that one of them was a man named Richard, who tried to comfort her and told her that they were part of a hybridization program. He said that he was a high-ranking official in the United Nations, and that he had met Linda before in a conference.
Linda's abduction was witnessed by 43 independent observers, who confirmed some details of her account. One of them was a police officer named Richard C. Malley, who was driving with his partner near the Brooklyn Bridge. He saw a woman and three creatures floating in a blue beam of light, and a large UFO above them. He reported the incident to his superiors but was told to keep quiet about it.
Another witness was Javier Perez de Cuellar, who was the Secretary General of the United Nations at the time. He was in a limousine with his security guards, heading to his hotel after a late meeting. He saw the same scene as Malley, and recognized Linda as the woman he had met at a conference. He was shocked and terrified by what he saw, and later contacted Hopkins to share his story.
Hopkins claimed that he had evidence to support Linda's case, such as hypnosis sessions, drawings, letters, phone records, and physical marks on her body. He also said that he had received threats and harassment from mysterious men in black, who wanted him to stop investigating the case. He believed that Linda's abduction was part of a long-term alien agenda, involving genetic manipulation and hybridization of humans and aliens.
Ths case is also known as the Manhattan Transfer case and as the Brooklyn Bridge abduction.
