We have an in-depth discussion on the "minder" phenomenon, how they manage to find their way into the lives of abductees and how the abductees eventually figure it out, and what happens to the "minder". Good minders v. bad minders and when minders get menacing. From there, we move on to the gripping and chilling story of her co-author's ordeal at the hands of the "powers that be". The phenomenon of "Stepford Abductees" and how Melinda reacts to them. We talk about disclosure in relation to the MILAB phenomenon and how Melinda sees it fitting into the "big picture" of Disclosure. She also discusses if and how she sees Disclosure playing out.
Women in Ufology, why there seems to be less women than men in Ufology and how Melinda sees that changing. Are there more women researchers in abduction than Ufology ? We wrap it up with what's next for Melinda Leslie, including a book that is about her that is coming out soon.
Melinda Leslie has investigated "covert intelligence" involvement in abductions for 12 years, conducting over 40 interviews of experiencers and researchers of this troubling phenomenon.
