In a recent document dump by the Department of Defense (DoD), provided to The Black Vault website, confirmation has emerged regarding news initially reported by Liberation Times earlier this year.
I try not to speculate too much when so much is kept from the public, but AARO really is starting to sound like a honey pot. It took close to a year to get their site up to allow reporting, so a lot of the initial investigation was into reports from individuals like Grusch. It seems they were going for people that were going public or filing complaints. If they could then claim participants improperly divulged classified info to them then they could use it as leverage to silence them.
In any case, it’s clear that Kirkpatrick was at best unprofessional in the handling of his role. I tried to give him a chance, but I haven’t seen a single positive come from his work with AARO. Even after leaving, he’s still acting as an unofficial spokesman to bash the UAP community.
