Trump promises answers on 10 missing US scientists: ‘Hope it’s random’

WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump announced on Thursday, April 16, that his administration will provide an answer within the next few days regarding the mysterious deaths and disappearances of the ten scientists over the past three years. 

Although various theories have circulated online that all these individuals reportedly had access to classified nuclear or aerospace material, there is currently no evidence connecting these cases.

Trump promises answers on 10 missing scientists

Speaking to reporters on the South Lawn before leaving for Las Vegas, President Trump explained that he had just attended a meeting specifically focused on the missing researchers. 

“Pretty serious stuff … hopefully a coincidence, or whatever you want to call it,” he added.

Trump expressed concern over the situation but remained cautious about drawing immediate conclusions. 

He told the press, “I hope it’s random, but we’re going to know in the next week and a half.” The President acknowledged the high status of the individuals involved, adding, “Some of them were very important people, and we’re going to look at it over the next short period.” 

When asked if a foreign adversary might be involved, Trump criticized Biden administration’s security measures, stating, “Well, Biden had open borders; it wasn’t very hard to get here.” 

Major General McCasland vanishes amid UAP speculation

One of the most prominent figures in this group is retired Air Force Maj Gen William “Neil” McCasland, who disappeared from his home in New Mexico on February 27. 

McCasland had a distinguished career in space research and was once mentioned in leaked emails regarding unidentified anomalous phenomena. 

Before he vanished, investigators noted he complained of “mental fog.” 

While he left behind his phone and glasses, his hiking boots, wallet and a revolver were missing.

Despite his background, his wife has denied theories that he possessed “any special knowledge about alien bodies and debris” from the Roswell incident.

Experts from Los Alamos, NASA, and MIT among the missing

Among those who have vanished are Melissa Casias, a woman who held a high-level security clearance at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Anthony Chavez, who used to work at that same lab. 

Other losses include Jason Thomas, a man who was the head of chemical biology team at Novartis, NASA engineer Frank Maiwald, MIT physics expert Nuno Loureiro, and space researcher Carl Grillmair. 

The group of concerned cases also includes Steven Garcia, a man who managed security for a company that makes parts for American nuclear weapons, and Monica Jacinto Reza, an engineer in the aerospace field. 

Earlier, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed these concerns during a press briefing. 

When asked about the potential for compromised classified material, she said, “I haven’t spoken to our relevant agencies about it.” 

However, she promised to investigate further, stating, “I will certainly do that, and we’ll get you an answer. If true, of course, that’s definitely something I think this government, administration would deem work worth looking into.”
